Sam told:

It started with (writer and director) Jim Strouse’s beautiful script. I loved the story and the characters. And then, when I found out Priyanka (Chopra) was involved, I was even more sold. I am a huge fan of hers, and she is utterly brilliant as the heart of this movie…We got on so well from day one. She welcomed us all into her world. This is a film about love, but the ultimate love story is that of Priyanka and her wonderful husband, Nick (Jonas).”

Nick Jonas is an American singer and actor. He met Priyanka in February 2017. Romance sparked between them and they started dating in May 2018. Soon after, in July 2018, the two got engaged. The wedding was held on 1 December 2018. Their daughter, Malti Marie delivered in January 2022 via surrogacy.

Reel-life Chemistry between Sam and Priyanka

In the movie, Sam plays Priyanka’s love interest. Was it hard to build the chemistry between them? Sam says no. He says that Priyanka is a warm and welcoming person and threw parties that helped them gel. He said:

“We drank! It was actually difficult because we shot in London during lockdown so we had to follow a lot of Covid protocols on set. We had to be very careful. But Priyanka hosted some fun parties for our little bubble; outdoors, I should add. That really helped build that chemistry, and bond everyone on the cast and crew.”

I was supposed to do this with a random actor and during Covid having someone lick my face, I was not about it. So I was like ‘Please Nick could you do it?’ He was a sport, he came on set, it was so funny, I was completely unprofessional that day,”
