Fans Online Resurface Priyanka Chopra’s Shady Dating History Before Nick Jonas Marriage

Before Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas got married in 2018 and became one of the cutest Hollywood couples, Chopra was once at the center of a controversy in Bollywood, and fans are resurfacing all the details

It all started with a post from Variety on X, the app formerly known as Twitter, promoting their new interview with her, saying, “Priyanka Chopra Jonas says she moved to Los Angeles in 2013 after her Bollywood roles began to feel limiting: ‘To restart your career in your 30s is terrifying,’ she says. ‘I was secure. I was doing well financially. I was established. And I chose to blow it up.'”

After this post, many online users pointed out her alleged affair with Shah Rukh Khan that seemingly led to her leaving Bollywood.

One person wrote, “Nah girl… You ****** SRK and his wife got you SWIFTLY blacklisted hahahahahahahaha We got your tea ????????‍♀️.” Another person added, “This is how im finding out she allegedly slept with srk lmfaoo.”

Now, is this true? What happened between Chopra and Shah Rukh Khan?

Shah Rukh Khan is an Indian actor known as “SRK” or the “Baadshah of Bollywood.” He has been married to producer Gauri Khan since 1991 and shares three children together. Now, SRK and Chopra famously worked together on the Don Franchise, co-starring in Don (2006) and its sequel Don 2 (2011), and during Don 2, the affair rumors began.

It all started when they were often seen together at public events and late-night outings, and it followed them for years until 2013. SRK even commented on them in an interview via Times of India, saying, “To me, what is most disturbing is the fact that a lady who’s worked with me has been questioned, and somewhere down the line, she’s not being shown the kind of respect I show her or all the women. I think it’s a little disrespectful. I’m extremely sorry about that. Sorry means… it’s not directly because of anything I’ve done, but because she’s my friend. She’s one of the closest friends I have, very close to my heart, and always will be.”

Chopra also shut down the rumors, but they persisted. In fact, Redditors surfaced many photos of them being touchy out at a club in Berlin, her allegedly having some of his clothes, and more. Later, insiders claimed his wife was considering divorce, but decided to ask SRK to never work with Chopra again. And they never worked together since.

While the affair has never been confirmed, it’s still a huge talking point online, and it doesn’t help that Chopra was also in another alleged affair with actor Akshay Kumar.

Before SRK, Chopra often co-starred with Kumar in films like Andaaz (2003), Mujhse Shaadi Karogi (2004), and Aitraaz (2004). They became an on-screen it-couple, and it led to affair rumors as well. (Kumar has been married to author Twinkle Khanna, with whom he has two children, since 2001.)

And the story ended the same: the alleged affair hurt Akshay’s marriage to Twinkle Khanna, which led to them never working again.

Later, in 2025, in an interview with Bollywood Bubble, director Suneel Darshan noted that at that time, there was “a lot of turbulence in [Kumar’s] personal life.”

Translated, he also said: “I do believe that actors should be very responsible, and married men even more so. But what happens is, it’s human nature to make mistakes—and it’s fate to beat the producer.”
