King recalls his conversation with Priyanka Chopra; 'It is the perfect time'

Singer and Rapper King, who recently released a new version of his hit song Maan Meri Jaan (Afterlife) in collaboration with singer Nick Jonas, recently revealed that Priyanka Chopra reassured him that he was doing the right thing. He said that he spoke to Priyanka on facetime while he was speaking with Nick about their single. He called her 'humble' and 'sweet'.

Speaking with ET Canada, the singer talked about his facetime conversation with Priyanka Chopra. He said 'So, the day this track (Maan Meri Jaan) was about to release, Nick sent me a text and he was like, ‘Bro, let’s FaceTime,’ and I was like, ‘Okay, okay.’ And he called me up and we were talking and just appreciating each other’s hard work and everything and he just literally did this [changes phone’s angle] and said, ‘You can speak to Priyanka.’ She was sitting just next to him. I was like, ‘Is it really happening?'

He further added that Priyanka said that he's doing the right thing. This is the right moment to get on the map to do it right. And this is the perfect time.

The new version of 'Maan Meri Jaan' dropped earlier this month and became an instant hit. Although the hindi lyrics of the songs are pretty much the same as the last version, it features English vocals by Nick.
