Making an appearance to the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Friday night — with Chopra watching from the audience — the singer offered details about the couple’s recent trip to India, where they celebrated their engagement among family members.
After getting engaged, the couple participated in a traditional Roka ceremony, which Jonas explained is a “confirmation from both sides of the family that they approve of the engagement.”
“We both left that ceremony so full of joy,” Jonas said, also sharing that his parents were “blown away by the love shared among all the people.”
Though Jonas quipped that the celebration was “a little different from Jersey” — the singer’s home state — it was their ability to have privacy from the spotlight that was the most satisfying.
