Throwback: When Madhu Chopra hailed Nick Jonas as a loving and respectful son-in-law

Global icons Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas often make headlines for their professional and personal endeavors. One of the aspects of their family life that has garnered significant attention is their visits to temples with their daughter, Malti Marie. These visits, filled with devotion and cultural immersion, highlight the couple’s commitment to their spiritual beliefs and Indian heritage. Here’s a closer look at some of their memorable temple visits.

During a recent trip to India, Priyanka Chopra, along with her husband Nick Jonas, and daughter Malti Marie, paid a visit to the Ayodhya Ram Mandir. Although Priyanka missed the consecration ceremony of the Ram Mandir in January, she ensured to include this spiritual stop in her itinerary. The family was accompanied by Priyanka's mother, Madhu Chopra.

Priyanka shared a series of poignant pictures and videos on her Instagram, capturing moments of prayer and reflection. In one photo, she is seen praying with Malti, encapsulating the essence of blessings and devotion. Other images featured Nick and Madhu, engaging with the temple surroundings and capturing memories. Priyanka’s caption, “Jai Siya Ram,” echoed her spiritual sentiments and the blessings they sought for their daughter and family.

A particularly touching moment from the visit was a video where Priyanka trying to save Malti from the wind with her saree at the airport. Inside the temple, she ensured that Nick received a traditional tilak. The video also showed Priyanka encouraging Malti to say "Ayodhya," which the little one adorably attempted.

They say girls grow like weed, and we are sure Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas will agree to this, as their little princess turned two this year. The couple celebrated their daughter Malti Marie’s second birthday in a spiritually significant manner. Alongside an Elmo-themed party, they visited a temple in Los Angeles to mark the occasion. Priyanka shared heartfelt photos on Instagram, showcasing moments of prayer and family bonding at the temple.

During a stay in Mumbai, Priyanka Chopra took Malti Marie to the renowned Siddhivinayak Temple. This visit was particularly special as it marked Malti’s first trip to India since her birth in the US. Although Nick Jonas was not present, the visit was steeped in cultural and spiritual significance.

Several photos and videos from the temple surfaced on social media, showing Priyanka in a light green salwar suit and Malti in a white dress. A video captured Priyanka carrying Malti during the pooja, with both receiving a traditional tika on their foreheads. Another image showed Priyanka posing with an idol of Lord Ganesha, highlighting her devotion and the blessings sought for her daughter.
