Cousins, I'm Mel I'm Kelly. Well today is a fun episode.
We're covering, you know, we're going International.
We're doing a couple that is. Another case of did they or
didn't? They will they won't, they, I
love a good mystery. So this is the story of Priyanka
Chopra and Shahrukh, Khan Bollywood actor, and And known
as the king of Bollywood, really?
I didn't know that. Yeah, I read, you know, anything
about this relationship, like I knew that Priyanka was obviously
really big Bollywood star before getting with Nick, Jonas.
And I had heard that she had been, you know, really outcast
in Bollywood. I heard that too but didn't know
why. And a lot of people speculate
that it is because of an alleged Affair between the two of them.
Yeah, I heard all I knew about this was that she was considered
kind of a quote homewrecker. Hmm.
Yeah, she does have that reputation.
So, okay, we always ask this question.
How would you describe this relationship?
And three words? Oh, I didn't prepare for this.
I would probably say mysterious. Hmm, interesting forbidden
Forbidden fruit taste the sweetest and suspicious.
Okay, I mean it's an affair. After all I I feel like I I'm
happy you're doing this couple because I just I guess I'll air
my bias is right now, I'm not a big fan of Priyanka and Nick
Jonas is a couple. Well why do you say that?
I think at worst it seems maybe fake to me at best, just seems
very opportunistic and like, there's selling their
relationship or I don't know. Priyanka just seems little fake
to me but I don't know that much about her so I'm intrigued to
learn more. Yeah, I also think that her
relationship with Nick Jonas seems very much for the media.
Like I feel like they They didn't recognized how much media
attention they were getting at the beginning and they just go
right into it. Yeah, I think it kind of all the
Jonas, Brothers. I mean, not Kevin, but Joe
Jonas. He's somewhat like that with his
relationship to but not as much in your face like yeah.
There was a time when Nick Jonas and Priyanka were pretty much
everywhere. Yep.
And it's like, okay, it's like, you know, those couples who make
really lengthy Instagram captions.
You're like that's a Assigned to me that something is not right
in this relationship. Yeah, I'm going to hold what?
I just don't see chemistry with them.
I just I I don't know. Yeah.
And her her clapping to nobody during the pandemic that doesn't
really do with him but yeah that's I'll try to keep an open
mind but a lot of people feel that way a lot of people don't
like me, we'll get into it. I mean so the thing about this
affair is like this is I mean there are like forums online
like there's a whole Reddit community.
This is really like one of those things this.
Yeah. Like people were about her about
this relationship is it called? This is like a lot of truthers.
Wait, there's a subreddit just for this?
I think so. Yeah, my God where people are
like talking about it like people for years, have been
trying to prove that this is, was it an actual Affair that
happened? I will say, I don't know after
doing this research. I mean I'm by no means an
expert, like, but I, after putting In all of this together,
I'm not 100% convinced that something happened.
Really gone to my head. I might lean towards there was
an affair. Okay.
Bye. I can't say for certain and I
think that's that's the part of the appeal to it.
Yeah, yeah. Well let's hear it.
All right so who is Shahrukh? Khan he goes by srk in Bollywood
and he's often referred to As the king of Bollywood, like I
would say that it seems like he's like the most famous actor
over there. He's how old is he 57?
Okay. So he's like, Brad Pitt.
Yeah, I was. He's like the Indian Brad Pitt.
I would say. Okay, wow, he was born on
November 2nd, 1965 in New Delhi, India, and a neighborhood.
That's pretty old. It's quiet residential, but
still connected to the city via public transport.
Okay. Comes from a Muslim family.
Family. His dad was Mir Taj, Mohamed
Khan, who was a fighter for India's Independence, against
Britain and a member of the Indian National Congress and his
mom was Latif Fatima Khan, who was, I don't know, she practiced
law, I'm not really sure specifically what she did.
That's okay. And then he had an older sister.
I think her name is pronounced Shane Oz and she six years older
than him. His family was really
middle-class. His dad had several businesses
including Owning a restaurant. And apparently srk was pretty
shy and introverted as a kid, but overcame that shyness
through performing and doing impressions of Bollywood actors.
As a teen, he attended the sink st.
Columba's school, where he played, hockey and soccer.
I didn't feel hockey though, I'm not sure, and there he received
the sort of honor award, which was given to students who excel
at academics and co-curricular activities.
