The 71-year-old once again dazzled at an international event in New York, turning heads in a shimmering Indian suit—and even drawing a sweet, eye-catching gesture from Priyanka’s brother-in-law, Joe Jonas.

A Special Bond With the Jonas Family

Priyanka’s in-laws reside abroad, and Madhu Chopra often visits for family gatherings and high-profile events. Her bond with Nick Jonas is already well known, and now, her connection with the rest of the Jonas family is just as evident.

The moment has now gone viral among fans.

Standing Out in Deśi Glamour Amid Western Attire

Her outfit featured:

• Round-neck kurta with intricate embroidery
• Fine sequin detailing adding a festive sparkle
• Long sleeves and knee-length design
• Gold-thread accents enhancing the luxurious finish

Despite the heavy work on the kurta, she balanced the look perfectly with a plain, simple palazzo, avoiding the risk of making the outfit look overwhelming.

Madhu completed her ensemble with a delicate net dupatta, decorated with subtle sequin work and a graceful golden border. Her jewelry added the perfect royal touch:

• A stunning gold necklace
• Pearl-encrusted earrings

• A statement diamond ring

The combined effect was elegant, traditional, and effortlessly glamorous—earning praise from fashion lovers and fans across social media.
