Priyanka Chopra Opens Up About Parenting and Future Guidance for Daughter Malti Marie
Global superstar Priyanka Chopra is already contemplating the kind of mentorship she would provide to her young daughter, Malti Marie, should the child ever decide to follow in her parents' footsteps and enter the entertainment industry. In a candid and insightful recent conversation with E! News, Priyanka shared her heartfelt advice for Malti, whom she shares with her husband, musician Nick Jonas.
Staying Grounded and Focusing on Craft
If their four-year-old daughter chooses to pursue acting in the years to come, Priyanka's core message is unequivocal: remain grounded and concentrate intensely on honing your skills. "Focus on yourself and what your contribution is instead of all the noise," the acclaimed actor emphasized. She elaborated, noting, "There can be so much distraction and pressure that comes from it. I think just focusing on your craft helps and protects you to be good at what you do," as reported by E! News. This advice reflects Priyanka's own journey in a demanding industry, highlighting the importance of resilience and dedication.
Malti's Early Exposure to the Entertainment World
Priyanka, who will next appear in the highly anticipated film 'The Bluff,' premiering exclusively on Prime Video on February 25, disclosed that Malti is already quite familiar with the environment of a film set. According to the versatile performer, her daughter has been accompanying her to work since she was just an infant. "She's been on set with me since she was one year old," Priyanka revealed, adding that Malti even embarked on travels at six months old and joined Jonas on his music tours.
Growing up with parents who are deeply entrenched in the worlds of film and music, Malti's consistent exposure to the spotlight has been a natural part of her upbringing. Priyanka explained that she and Jonas have made deliberate and conscious efforts to normalize their professions for their daughter. "Every parent has a job, Mama makes movies," she said, describing how they introduce Malti to the various departments on set—from craft services and assistant directors to producers, hair, and makeup teams.
"She's seen the different departments, and I think she really loves coming to set with me. Her fascination and curiosity is just so much fun," Priyanka told the publication, painting a picture of a nurturing and educational environment for the young child.
