A throwback video from Miss India 2000 shows Shah Rukh khan asking Priyanka Chopra, “Hypothetically, who would you rather marry? A great Indian sportsman with all the records in Indian cricket like Azhar Bhai here who would make our country proud, take you all around the world and make you swell with pride or a business person with a difficult name to pronounce like Swarovski who would bedeck you with jewels and fine necklace and you will never have to buy a chandelier for your house ever again, or a Hindi film star like me who has nothing better to do than give you complicated multiple-choice questions about a hypothetical wedding like this.” Given that all three options were the jury members, Priyanka Chopra was rather unfazed by it.
Impressing everyone, she replied, “I would go for a great Indian sportsman because when I come back home or he comes back home, I know I will be there to be his support to tell him that I am proud of him as much as India is. To be able to tell him, 'Hey look, you did your best.' I will take immense pride in my husband who will be a man of strong character if he can bring so much pride to my country.”
