It is part of the nature of an Indian to add that pinch of desi salt to whatever we can take in our hands so that the final taste suits our national consciousness. Which is why pop star Nick Jonas of Jonas Brothers fame is more than a singer to us now – he’s our national jiju (brother-in-law) courtesy of his marriage to our ‘desi girl’ Priyanka Chopra. Their meeting at the Met Gala and the wedding that followed in 2018 wasn’t just a happy moment for global celebrities, here fans were equally excited to welcome the international celebrity to our land (Jaya holding a plate of worship) Put Bachchan’s picture).
Netizens too had a field day and Twitter was flooded with all kinds of memes and jokes that one can think of about a wedding like this. Netizens were worried whether Nick being from a foreign land would be privy to our customs and traditions and what a big surprise a big fat wedding would be for him. Some were even excited by the prospect of the Jonas Brothers performing in ‘Sangeet’. And the excitement only added to the excitement as Priyanka was the first Indian to be related to a popular Game of Thrones star (Sophie Turner).
Do you guys think Priyanka Chopra dressed Nick Jonas for a Bollywood wedding or is he really going to get confused when his shoes are stolen or when 100 people smear haldi (turmeric) on him? ??- Riya Patel (@riyapatel_23) July 27, 2018
While I have zero mental capacity to process Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’ engagement, imagining performing a musical by the Jonas brothers would be the highlight of my day- Tash Patel. (@tasudee) July 27, 2018
Since then this tag has remained with Nick. The Burnin’ Up singer also accepted his national Jiju nickname and once said in an interview, “I think Priyanka is a kind of country sister, and I’m happy to be a sister’s husband.” Another seal of approval came. The actress recognized herself by following her Instagram page ‘NationalJiju’.
Even Priyanka’s sister Parineeti Chopra keeps reminding Nick about his status as the Jiju of the country with her quirky comments on Instagram.
So that was the journey of Nick Jonas from becoming a pop sensation to the beloved brother-in-law of the entire country. And on his 29th birthday, on 16th September, we wish our brother-in-law all the happiness in the world.
