We've heard all the rumours, now we're seeing them be proven true.

Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas' engagement festivities kicked off in Mumbai today with a roka ceremony, according to Filmfare.

The happy couple were decked up in traditional attire, Priyanka in a lemon yellow Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla ensemble and Nick in an ivory kurta set.

A grand engagement party is reportedly taking place in a five-star hotel in Mumbai, where 200 rooms have been booked to accommodate all the guests. That includes Nick's parents who flew down to Mumbai earlier this week as well as brothers Joe and Kevin who are expected to join them shortly.

Nick looks like a kid, there is a huge age difference of 11 years between them. A Miss World deserved a better person. Although it is their choice. Congratulations !!!

@Sameer They have the freedom to marry whoever they want. This concept might seem new and exotic to you.

@Aamer "@A shah Men and women are equal all over the world" Not all over the world. They are slaves to racist ideologies and even showing their faces in certain backward regions, in spite of boasting the latest infrastructure. Not to mention woman rights.
