Priyanka Chopra responds to questions on engagement with Nick Jonas

Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra

Dogged by rumours of her engagement with American singer Nick Jonas, Priyanka Chopra says it's not mandatory that every detail of her personal life be revealed to the public. "My personal life, and everything about [it] is not for public consumption. Ninety per cent of my life is for public consumption, but 10 per cent of it, is for me. I am a girl and I have the right to keep that to myself. Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I get annoyed, but, mostly, I tell my publicists, 'Let it be, today's news is tomorrow's trash'," Chopra said at an event yesterday.

The actor has been in the midst of rumours that she is engaged to Jonas, who is 10 years younger to her. Chopra flew in to Mumbai from Singapore, where she attended Jonas's concert. She said she doesn't think she needs to "defend or explain" herself when it comes to her family and relationships. "I'm not running for office, so I don't owe anyone an explanation."
