Nick Jonas talks about being India’s ‘National Jiju’: “I’m India’s older brother”

-

Nick Jonas recently responded to being dubbed ‘National Jiju’ in India. The singer-actor explained the significance and meaning of the phrase to his Indian followers.

Nick Jonas shares a special bond with both his Indian fans and the paparazzi. The singer-actor recently reacted to being dubbed ‘National Jiju’ because of his marriage to Priyanka Chopra. In an interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, Nick explained why the ‘Jiju’ tag was given to him.

The American singer-songwriter told Jimmy, “As you know, I am married to Priyanka. When we got married, this hashtag began. I was ‘National Jiju.’ Jiju means “elder sister’s husband,” thus I’m India’s older brother. The show host also played a footage from the Jonas Brothers’ concert in India, during which Joe and Kevin Jonas introduced him as “Jiju.”

On December 1, 2018, Priyanka and Nick married in the beautiful Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. On January 15, 2022, the couple welcomed their daughter Malti Marie, born via surrogacy. The couple picked the name Malti Marie as a passionate tribute to their mothers. Malti is the middle name of Priyanka’s mother, Dr. Madhu Chopra, while Marie is named after Nick’s mother, Denise Jonas.

Nick will next be featured in John Carney’s musical comedy Power Ballad, which is set to be released in 2025.

After playing in theatres for 10 days, the Salman Khan starrer Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has entered the Rs. 100 Crore Club. It has taken a while for the film to reach here since pre-pandemic it was an entirely different scenario where Salman Khan starrers were scoring as much in their opening weekend itself. However, these are different times and hence the kind of momentum that was evidenced for films in 2019 or before is just not coming in. Yes, there are exceptions like Pathaan or Brahmastra but then those have a different kind of pitch and aren’t regular affairs. This can be seen in the way how collections are coming for the Farhad Samji directed film in the second weekend, what with Sunday collections staying low at Rs. 3.50 crores. For a big holiday release, one would have been expecting a double digit score at the bare minimum on second Sunday but then that has hardly happened for any film during last 18 odd months ever since Akshay Kumar’s Sooryavanshi opened theatres aga
