On December 01-02, 2018, our desi girl turned NYC chic, Priyanka Chopra, and American singing sensation, Nick Jonas, had tied the knot in two grand wedding ceremonies at Jodhpur’s Umaid Bhawan Palace. Despite being a global icon, Priyanka makes sure to value and cherish her Indian roots and every now and then, proves that she's an Indian at heart. Now, the adorable couple celebrated Holi at their LA home and shared glimpses of the same on their respective IG handles.
In an interview with Hello Magazine, after her fairytale wedding, Priyanka Chopra had talked about taking beautiful traditions that they grew up with and personalising them in such a way that made sense for them. She further added that it was an incredible journey for the couple to find commonalities between their beliefs and how they had figured out to blend them in a respectful and meaningful way.

Priyanka Chopra, who has always respected her Indian roots, is often seen flaunting her mangalsutra ever since she had tied the knot with Nick Jonas. Some time back, while sharing a jewellery brand endorsement video on her Instagram handle, Priyanka had mentioned how she is trying to take the traditions forward. Pee Cee, who even after getting so much fame knows how to be connected with her roots, had captioned the video as:
“A conversation starter for sure. The beautiful understated @bulgari mangalsutra, designed with love and respect by @lucia_silvestri. Take traditions forward by knowing who and what you stand for… I’m trying and learning every day.”
In a conversation with Lucia Silvestri, Priyanka had also opened up about the values connected with the mangalsutra, and had recalled the first time that she had worn it. She had said:
“I remember when I wore mine for the first time… because we have grown with the idea of what it means. It was just a very special moment for me. At the same time, as a modern woman, I also understand the repercussions of what it means. Do I like the idea of wearing mangalsutra or is it too patriarchal? But at the same time, I am that generation that's sort of in the middle. Maintain tradition but know who you are and what you stand for. And we'll see the next generation of girls might do differently.”
We love how Pee Cee is staying attached to Indian traditions despite being a global icon. What do you think? Let us know.
