Ever since Malti Marie Chopra Jonas came into their lives in 2022, parents Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas have made her the centre of their world. Despite their demanding careers, the two strive to create cherished moments and spend quality time with her whenever possible. While they can’t always be there for her due to work commitments, they’ve entrusted Malti to the care of Priyanka’s mother Madhu Chopra. The Love Again actor recently said her mom is “returning the favour” by looking after Malti.
While on her way to work in France, where she’s shooting her upcoming movie, Priyanka went live on Instagram and shared a glimpse of her day with her social media fam. “It’s a big day on set today. We will probably be shooting until late at night. Lots of stunts today,” she mentioned.
“Malti is at home with my mom, which is really nice. My mom was telling me a story about how when she went to work, when I was younger, she’d leave me with my grandma and go to work feeling a sense of calm. And I think she’s returning the favour to me, which is lovely,” Priyanka said with an adorable smile, adding that Malti went to the beach on Monday, where she really enjoyed herself.
During a chat with Bollywood Hungama late last year, Priyanka’s mother, Madhu, who was a physician in the Indian Army along with her husband (late) Ashok Chopra, also admitted to not being there physically for her children while they were growing up. She recalled sending Priyanka away to boarding school when she was just seven and later to the US when she was 12. Madhu further expressed some regret about her decisions but said that neither Priyanka nor Siddharth had ever accused her of abandoning them. She also admitted that she didn’t spend much time with Priyanka, who was closer to her father.
“Priyanka was beloved. She was the first girl in the family, and everybody loved her. I often regret the steps I took. She was four or five years old when she snapped at her father. I realised that these were the same words I’d use on her, and it made me doubt my parenting. Perhaps I wasn’t doing the right things. And when she was seven, I put her in a boarding school without my husband’s approval, without my family’s approval. I didn’t counsel Priyanka either. Those four years were very tough… But neither of my children has accused me of abandoning them yet.”
In the past, Priyanka has spoken about the difficulties she faced in high school in the US, where she was the target of racial discrimination. And when she returned to India, she suffered from an identity crisis and received unusual treatment from her friends.
