But this was like a four-hour show, and I was on stage this whole time. Obviously, in a pageant, so sweating away. So the tape had come off. So after I won, I'm doing namaste the whole time, but I'm actually holding my dress up.'

Priyanka Chopra Jonas dreads this household chore, but the person she tricked into doing it will leave you in splits
Synopsis Priyanka Chopra Jonas recently shared a humorous story about avoiding her least favorite chore, 'laundry' by tricking her mother-in-law, Denise Jonas, into doing it for her. In a recent interview, the global icon revealed her struggle with the complexities of washing clothes, offering fans a relatable glimpse into her domestic life beyond the glamour. In a candid interview Priyanka Chopra Jonas confessed she cleverly let her mother-in-law Denise Miller Jonas take over her laundry duties under the guise of learning. (Image: Instagram/ Nick Jonas) Priyanka Chopra Jonas may have a shelf full of accolades, a thriving acting career across continents, and the title of Miss World 2000 under her belt — but when it comes to household chores, there's one task she's hilariously determined to avoid: laundry. In a recent interview with PEOPLE, the 42-year-old actress and producer candidly confessed that despite her polished public persona, the washing machine remains her personal nemesis. 'Laundry is a hard chore for me. I find it tough,' she said. 'I'll always try to get someone else to do it.' And as it turns out, that 'someone' happened to be none other than her mother-in-law, Denise a glimpse into their close-knit relationship, Priyanka revealed that her mother-in-law once offered to teach her the ropes of laundry. But in a twist worthy of a sitcom, Chopra Jonas had a different plan. 'That was just my way of getting her to do my laundry for me!' she laughed, admitting that she let the tutorial play out just long enough before surrendering the job to Denise. 'I can steam an iron, I can fold,' she clarified. 'But just getting through the process of laundry is just really tough. Too many buttons, too many choices, too many little things…' Following the playful confession, Priyanka joked she needed to make a phone call right away. 'I'm going to call her right now and tell her I said this. 'Just want you to know!'' she added, laughing. Since marrying Nick Jonas in 2018, Priyanka has maintained a warm and visible bond with the Jonas family. Denise, in particular, has often appeared in candid social media moments featuring the couple's three-year-old daughter, Malti Marie. The affection is mutual. Back in 2023, on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Priyanka shared a touching moment when Denise recalled watching the young Indian contestant win the Miss World pageant in 2000. At the time, Nick was just seven years old, while Priyanka was seventeen. 'My mother-in-law was like, 'I remember watching you when you won,'' Priyanka said, still awestruck at how time — and fate — brought their worlds together. 'He was sitting there, and he was watching. Unfathomable.'While she may avoid the spin cycle at home, Priyanka Chopra Jonas continues to be in constant motion professionally. Her latest action-comedy Heads of State is now streaming on Prime Video, featuring John Cena as the U.S. president and Idris Elba as the U.K. prime minister. Directed by Ilya Naishuller, the film is yet another addition to her increasingly diverse filmography. Up next, Chopra Jonas will be seen in The Bluff alongside Karl Urban and Judgment Day, co-starring Zac Efron and Will Ferrell — both projects that signal her growing influence in global cinema. But amid all the Hollywood action, it's the quieter, personal anecdotes — like tricking your mother-in-law into doing the laundry — that remind fans why Priyanka remains one of the most relatable stars.

Priyanka Chopra Reveals She Was ‘Overawed By This Mani Ratnam Classic In Her Teens'
When asked about a film that left her spellbound, Priyanka Chopra revealed her admiration for a Mani Ratnam classic. Priyanka Chopra, making waves for her latest film Heads of State, has come a long way since her crowning moment as Miss World 2000 at just 18. In a recent conversation, the actress fondly recalled a pivotal moment that showcased the magic of cinema. When asked if the power of films had ever swept her away, Priyanka revealed a cherished memory of watching Mani Ratnam's 1995 masterpiece, Bombay. Recalling her early days, Priyanka Chopra shared a poignant memory of watching Mani Ratnam's 'Bombay" in, fittingly, the city of Bombay. She told India Today, 'I didn't grow up watching a lot of movies. We always had music because my dad was a big fan of Bollywood music. We used to play that at home all day. But I remember the very pivotal moment when I watched the movie Bombay in Bombay." This candid reflection offers a glimpse into Priyanka's upbringing and the film that left a lasting impression on her. 'I was 12 or something, in my early teens. It was just a really heavy movie for a young person, but I was just overawed by it and every time I still watch it, I go back to that. It was my first experience, and it was in a movie theatre. So the collective experience of watching something that was so powerful with people… I will never forget that feeling," she went on to add. A Timeless Classic: Mani Ratnam's Bombay Mani Ratnam's 1995 masterpiece, Bombay, is a Tamil musical drama starring Arvind Swamy and Manisha Koirala. This critically acclaimed film is the second instalment in Ratnam's acclaimed trilogy, which explores the complexities of Indian politics, alongside Roja (1992) and Dil Se (1998). The film's soundtrack, composed by the legendary AR Rahman, became an instant hit, with its songs achieving cult status. Bombay also received widespread critical acclaim, winning two National Awards: Best Feature Film on National Integration and Best Editing. On Priyanka Chopra's work front, she will be seen in Heads of State, an Amazon Prime Video film that brings together an impressive ensemble cast, including Idris Elba and John Cena. The film premiered on Prime Video on July 2. With a diverse range of projects in the pipeline, Priyanka is set to take on the swashbuckling role of a 19th-century Caribbean pirate in The Bluff.
