Looks like Priyanka Chopra will finally make her relationship with Nick Jonas official today. The American singer arrived in Mumbai a little past midnight on Thursday (August 17) with his parents, and is said to have headed straight to PeeCee’s Juhu residence.

BT found out that over the last two days, Priyanka’s house is being decorated with lighting and flowers. Buzz is that the actress will make her engagement to Nick official after a traditional roka plus ring ceremony, which is likely to be held at her residence. Nick and his parents have been put up at Priyanka’s house. At the time of going to press, it was speculated that the singer’s siblings and some other relatives would also attend the couple’s big day.

Priyanka and Nick have been dating for a while now. Their relationship caught the eyes of the press this summer, when the duo was seen together at Nick’s cousin’s wedding and at a couple of other public events. What added fuel to the fire was the actress’ sudden visit to India last month with Nick, her exit from Salman Khan’s Bharat, her family interacting with him and the huge diamond that she has been flaunting lately, which is said to be the ring Nick slipped on to her finger on her birthday. Now, all eyes are set on the Chopras and the Jonas’ for a formal announcement.
