10 Times Priyanka Chopra Jonas stepped out in JAW DROPPING desi outfits and bowled us over

Back in 2008, as India had its very first lesson on homosexuality, Priyanka Chopra Jonas earned the lasting moniker of ‘desi girl’. In the hilarious chartbuster Dostana, we saw her waltzing around a club in Miami in every Indian girl’s favourite silhouette- a saree. In the form of a slinky metallic saree and a bikini blouse, the now global style icon took the six yards of elegance to a whole new level. Through the years, her ethnic lexicon has played host to stunning desi looks we wouldn’t dare grapple with.

A trailblazer in the truest sense, Priyanka Chopra Jonas has embraced timeless classics and instant conversation starting desi outfits over her long spanning career. While the 37-year-old diva is no stranger to setting trends with her off-duty looks, her desi closet isn’t far behind.
