Nick Jonas recently addressed the affectionate title 'National Jiju' given to him by his Indian fans. The term, which means "elder sister's husband," reflects his marriage to Indian actress Priyanka Chopra. Jonas discussed the nickname during an interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, where he explained its significance.

Jonas shared with Fallon, "As you know, I am married to Priyanka. When we got married, this hashtag began. I was 'National Jiju.' Jiju means 'elder sister's husband,' thus I'm India's older brother."
