Speaking to E! News at the premiere of the documentary Cycle of Love in New York, Chopra said respect for a partner's roots is important in any multicultural relationship. She also said kindness between partners is crucial. Chopra, who served as executive producer on Cycle of Love, praised Jonas for being a secure person and for maintaining the spark in their romance. The couple, who married in India in two ceremonies in 2018, have often spoken about embracing each other's cultures. Hindustan Times reported the couple are an inspiration for interracial and intercultural couples worldwide, while Bollywood Hungama noted Jonas has accompanied Chopra on trips to India and participated in Indian festivals.
