Priyanka Chopra was recently spotted at the pre-Oscars bash with her husband Nick Jonas and friend actor Mindy Kaling to celebrate the South Asian Excellence event.

The event was held at the Paramount Studio Lot in Los Angeles on March 9 where the Bollywood actress looked gorgeous in a feathery white outfit.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, the actress said:  "I'm so grateful that we've had the ability to not just return, but do it in such an amazing capacity and be hosted by Paramount Pictures. "

She further said: "I mean, this is iconic. And to be able to look around me, and see my peers and colleagues that have hustled and pounded the pavement for years, and to be able to have them receive a moment that's just theirs, makes me like, cry."

"This night is about the nominees, and you see a lot of them coming. This will be about giving them the stage and giving them a moment. Showcasing a little bit of the movies and championing them as the Oscars come back," the Barfi actress told to the outlet.

When the actress was asked about her 14-month-old daughter, she responded, "She's asleep. Thank God. Can you imagine?"

 She added: "No, tonight's daddy and mommy's night out."
