Priyanka Choprais a name many Americans have quickly become familiar with she’s a Bollywood starlet-turned-American sweetheart.
TheQuanticoactress’engagementto Nick Jonas certainly didn’t hurt.
I’m a girl; I have the right to keep that to myself."

She’s got a point.
Plus, Chopra’s life involves much more than her romantic life.
When Chopra was just a preteen, she left Jamshedpur to live with her aunt in Newton, Massachusetts.

The small American city is home to less than 100,000 people.
And for a teenager, that’s really important, you know?"
She walked away victorious asFeminia Miss India World 2000.

In spite of obviously being a beautiful contestant, not everyone thought she’d win.
Sadly, this wasn’t the first time Chopra was judged for her appearance.
“Yeah, he probably hasn’t,” Chopra joked.

“I do a lot of work, it’s because of that,” the actress clarified.
Chopra’s incredible film repertoire began in 2002 with the Hindi movieThamizhan.
It quickly became apparent that Chopra could command an audience through her acting, dancing, and singing.

“And what form it came in didn’t matter, because she is a multitalented individual.”
You could say Chopra and Acharia smashed that goal.
By February 2012, Chopra signed on with Creative Artists Agency, a leading talent agency in Hollywood.

ABC’sQuanticohelped Chopra gain international fame and recognition, and, of course, legions of fans.
In retrospect, it’s clear that Chopra possessed the can-do attitude and self-assurance needed to thrive in Hollywood.
That’s what I’d recommend to everyone."

That’s not to say Chopra doesn’t enjoy fashion.
She admitted to owning two closets full of shoes and a forever-growing jewelry collection.
Through the years, the actress' beauty regimen has remained mostly unchanged.

Detailing her fairly simple formula, Chopra said “less is more” when it comes to makeup.
She says this pattern helps you to avoid looking like a “painting.”
In 2013, she was recognized as the winner of Mumbai’s Most Stylish.

Chopra’s stylist, Ami Patel, shared some tidbits about Chopra’s fashion sense toHindustan Times.
First and foremost, Patel said Chopra’s style is “very versatile!”
She was also described as a trend-setter, not a trend-follower, as you could rightly imagine.

By 2013, though, she’d made the transition to “edgy chic.”
Of course,someactually are.
Don’t feel bad, though.

Even Chopra’s costars were initially unaware of the magnitude of her stardom.
That same characteristic Johnson sees is clearly evident in the actress’many interviews.
Without an air of superiority, Chopra is far from aloof or out of touch with her fans.

“It’s really, really warm and infusing.”
She joked, “It’s not scary if that’s what you’re thinking.”
And to think it all began with a beauty pageant when Chopra was just ateen.
I definitely want to do a feature this year, here [in the U.S.]."
Oh, and she revealed that she’s writing a book.Whew.
Chopra toldForbes, “When it comes to work…
I’m a beast.”
Ambition is pure ambition."
By the following December, the couple had sat down withVogueto satiate their fans' curiosity about their relationship.
“It was Nick who sent the first message,” Chopra toldVogue.
That’s right Jonas slid into her DMs.
Shortly afterwards, Chopra gave him her phone number and the two began texting.
Where have you been all my life?"
After their third official date a Dodgers game Jonas decided he was going to marry Chopra.
Later that evening at their Sangeet, Jonas and Chopra’s families performed choreographed dance numbers.
To her first wedding ceremony, Chopra wore a custom Ralph Lauren wedding gown with an incredible 75-foot veil.
The actress toldPeople, “It was all tears.
The following day, the couple exchanged vows once more this time in a Hindu ceremony.
Since then, Chopra has been living her happily ever after.
