"There's this one moment in Indian weddings where the bride and groom are lifted on the shoulders of their family members and there's sort of a game that's played where this garland is put on each other. They try to be the first to put the garland on the other. And it's surprisingly difficult, especially when you have someone as competitive as me and Pri. But whoever is the one to put it on first, that side of the family is the more dominant."

Earlier, Priyanka Chopra also shared an interesting memory from the Hindu ceremony with Nick Jonas in an interview with British Vogue. Recalling the bitter-sweet memory from her lavish wedding, she revealed how Nick's entire family had flown down to India for the multiple-day-long affair. Priyanka also recalled that Nick's family was nodding off during the Hindu wedding ceremony as they all were jet-lagged. Further talking about her and Nick's The Simpsons meme, Priyanka mentioned:

“This is from our Hindu wedding. It's done according to astrological charts and the auspicious time was 10 o'clock at night, and everyone had flown down from America. They were just so jet-legged. I could just see my husband glaring at his family cause they were nodding off. This was really bittersweet and funny because obviously, The Simpsons, are an iconic part of most of our childhoods. But it was also the irony of me in an Indian dress marrying a white guy. Great.”
