Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra have confirmed they are engaged after just a few months together.
The Texan singer, formerly part of the Jonas Brothers, and the Bollywood superstar held a private engagement ceremony in Mumbai on Saturday. Both wore traditional Indian clothes.
The pair's engagement has been rumoured for about three weeks but they had not confirmed it until now.
No date has yet been announced for the wedding.
The couple shared identical photos from the ceremony on their respective Instagram pages, with Jonas calling Chopra the "future Mrs Jonas".
The engagement party - called a roka - is a chance for the couple to exchange gifts and makes the union of their families public.
Their engagement is one of a rash of recent quick celebrity engagements.
Earlier this year, singer Ariana Grande and comedian Pete Davidson decided after a few weeks of dating that they would get married, and last month singer Justin Bieber got engaged to a former flame, model Hailey Baldwin, who he got back together with very recently.
Chopra won the Miss World pageant in 2000 and went on to make more than 50 films in India, alongside superstars like Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan, becoming one of Bollywood's highest-paid actresses, with many awards and accolades.
Time magazine named her as one of the 100 most influential people in the world two years ago, and last year Forbes magazine included her in a list of the world's 100 most powerful women.
She broke in to acting in the US with a role in the TV series Quantico and film roles in Ventilator, Baywatch and A Kid like Jake.
And she was a guest of Meghan Markle in the wedding of 2018.

Jonas was part of a band with his brothers Joe and Kevin and got a big following on the Disney Channel through films like Camp Rock. He has since gone solo, with hits including Levels, Jealous and Chains and was a mentor with Demi Lovato on the X Factor.
At 25, he is a decade younger than Chopra. He is said to have proposed to her in London in June, after reportedly closing down a jewellery shop to buy her an expensive engagement ring.

Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra are toasting to their engagement!
The couple — who confirmed their relationship status on Saturday morning — celebrated their upcoming nuptials with a party in Mumbai, India, that was attended by their respective families, who were meeting each other for the first time, and many from her Bollywood circle.
Chopra shared a gallery of photos from the bash — which is known as a roka ceremony — including a group picture of the new couple with her mother Madhu, her brother Siddharth, and Jonas’ parents Denise and Kevin, Sr. all smiling together in front of a custom “NP” logo, which represents the couple’s first names.
In the photos, which also included a few of the pair participating in a Hindu prayer ceremony, Chopra wore a bright yellow Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla Couture suit, while Jonas was also dressed in traditional Indian apparel. During the prayer ceremony, known as a puja, a priest preformed rituals, asking the gods to bless the couple and let them live a happy life together, according to Indian newspaper The Hindu.
“The only way to do this… with Family and God,” she wrote alongside the images. “Thank you all for your wishes and blessings 🙏🏼♥️🎉.”

The night before, Nick and Priyanka enjoyed alone time at the JW Marriott after he arrived at the Chhatrapati Shivaji International airport.
As they made their exit, the Jonas patriarch had a big Tiffany & Co. bag in his hand. Of course, Tiffany’s is the jewelers that closed down its London store for Nick to buy an engagement ring for Chopra.

Following the bash, the happy couple confirmed their relationship status on social media by each posting the same romantic engagement photo.
“Future Mrs. Jonas. My heart. My love,” Jonas, 25, captioned the shot — which showed the couple embracing as she placed her hand (and massive engagement ring) on his chest.
“Taken.. With all my heart and soul,” Chopra, 36, wrote in the same shot on her page.
Their celebration comes a month after PEOPLE confirmed Jonas proposed to Chopra on her 36th birthday while they were vacationing in London, where he closed down the Tiffany store.

In May, Jonas and Chopra began dating after they attended the 2017 Met Gala.
An insider previously told PEOPLE the pair stayed in touch after hitting it off last year but things really heated up between the pair when they introduced each other to their families.
The pair previously traveled to India together in June, where Jonas met Chopra’s mother for the first time.
“We’re getting to know each other and I think it was a great experience for him,” Chopra previously told PEOPLE. “That’s what he said. I think he really enjoyed it. It was really beautiful. He had a great time.”
