“See You In 2026”: Priyanka Chopra Bids Adieu To Mumbai After Whirlwind 12-Hour Trip. Watch
Priyanka Chopra documented her frantic 12-hour Mumbai stopover, featuring a stunning Arpita Mehta look, backstage fun with Kapil Sharma, and a “See you in 2026” sign-off.
If anyone knows how to make an entrance (and a swift exit), it’s our very own ‘Desi Girl’. In a move that has left fans both exhilarated and dizzy, Priyanka Chopra Jonas just wrapped up a lightning-fast trip to Mumbai, documenting the entire 12-hour saga in a high-energy Instagram reel. The global sensation touched down in the bay for a blink-and-you-miss-it professional commitment, proving once again that she can conquer continents before most of us have even finished our morning coffee.
Check out Priyanka Chopra’s Instagram post below:
The video kicked off with glimpses of Mumbai’s iconic palm-lined streets as Priyanka headed to her hotel, the Fairmont Mumbai. But it wasn't just a standard check-in. The actress was greeted with a welcome amenity that perfectly suited her fashion-forward persona: a stunning, edible red stiletto made of chocolate, accompanied by a selection of gourmet treats. It was a sweet start to a day that was about to get very busy, very fast.
The centrepiece of the trip was her appearance on ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’, and naturally, the fashion stakes were high. The video offered a chaotic yet glamorous behind-the-scenes look at her getting-ready process. “Everybody is talking about their own thing,” she laughed while her team, including her stylist, fussed over her hair and nails.
For the main event, Priyanka Chopra stunned in a custom Arpita Mehta creation – a white and blue floral set that screamed resort-chic elegance. The outfit featured a structured corset-style bodice paired with a draped skirt and a matching scarf choker, giving the illusion of a saree gown. With her hair styled in voluminous waves and a fresh, dewy makeup look, she looked every bit the superstar ready to charm the audience.
The energy on the set of Kapil Sharma’s show was palpable. In one candid moment inside her vanity van, Priyanka was seen playfully asking Kapil, "Khush?", to which he responded with a beaming smile – a teaser for the camaraderie fans can expect when the episode airs.
Stepping out of her vanity, she was greeted by a frenzy of paparazzi. True to form, she handled the flashing lights with grace, waving to everyone and even stopping to take selfies with a lucky few. In a moment that jerked us back to reality, she was heard wishing the paps “Happy New Year,” a stark reminder that we are already at the tail end of 2025!
As quickly as it began, the trip was over. The reel cut to Priyanka back in her hotel room, having swapped the floral couture for a comfy purple tracksuit. Lying face-down on a yellow couch, she playfully whined, “But I don't want to go,” dreading the long flight back to New York.
Referencing the vibe of her departure, she joked, “Me and Ms. Lauryn Hill are on our way back to New York City,” before grabbing her luggage and heading out.
Perhaps the most buzz-worthy part of the post was her caption. She wrote, “Mumbai always raises the bar. I raise it right back. Jald phirse Mulaquat hogi.. See you in 2026 #whirlwind.”
While 2026 might sound far away, it is, in fact, just around the corner. With only a few weeks left in 2025, Priyanka’s sign-off was a cheeky confirmation that this was her last India visit of the year. As she heads back to the US to reunite with her daughter Malti Marie and husband Nick Jonas, fans in India are already counting down the days until the New Year brings her back home.
Until then, we have this whirlwind reel – and the upcoming Kapil Sharma episode – to keep us entertained!
