  • Priyanka Chopra once chose a sportsperson over Shah Rukh Khan for marriage.
  • PeeCee had made the choice in reply to a question by SRK during the Miss India beauty pageant finals.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas is happily married to Nick Jonas and the duo is setting perfect couple goals. But there was a time when she was competing with Lara Dutta and other girls for the coveted Miss India title and in the final round, she had to answer some special questions from the esteemed judges. Apart from several business people and media barons, former Indian cricketer Azharuddin and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan were also a part of the panel of judges.

During the question and answer session, SRK asked an elaborate question to Priyanka Chopra. The Badshah of Bollywood made it clear that it is a hypothetical question and the answer will not make any impact on the decision of the judges. Shah Rukh asked who Priyanka would like to marry, a sportsman like Azhar who will make her heart swell with pride, take her across the world or a businessman who will shower her with gifts and jewels or a Bollywood star like himself who will make it complicated for her by asking such complicated questions.

And as expected of every beauty pageant finalist, Priyanka said that she would prefer to marry a sportsperson like Azharuddin because when he comes back home, she as his wife would be there to support and tell him that she is proud of him.

Soon after winning Miss World, Priyanka entered Bollywood and the rest is history. While she preferred a sportsperson for marriage during the Miss India finals, in real life PeeCee was mesmerized by SRK and at one point in life and was rumoured to have secretly tied the knot with Shah Rukh Khan. While neither of the two stars ever came out with any official statement about their relationship, it is also rumoured that it was due to their breakup that the 'desi girl' shifted to Hollywood.

Currently, Priyanka Chopra Jonas is doing a great job by managing her career both in Hollywood and Bollywood.
