Priyanka Chopra, who tied the knot with Nick Jonas in December last year, has shared why she chose to take the US singer's last name.

On Fallon the Tonight show with Jimmy Fallon, the Bollywood actor said she took Nick's name because she's a little "old school" and wanted to feel more connected to him. 

"No, I always wanted to add his name to mine because I feel like we're becoming family, and I'm a little traditional and old school like that. But I don't take away my identity. He gets added to who I am," she explained.

She also said that she didn't even realize the "gravity of it" or think it was a huge deal until her monogram changed to PCJ.

Priyanka also spoke about how different married life is and how much better Nick's house is because nothing in hers ever works. "So the coffee machine doesn't work, the air conditioning makes some sounds. It's cute, my house is beautiful, but nothing works. And everything in Nick's house is immaculate. Like his alarms work. My alarms never work! My doorbell doesn't work," she added.
