Unfinished: A Memoir by Priyanka Chopra Jonas – Paperback

About the Book

In Unfinished, Priyanka Chopra Jonas takes readers through her nomadic childhood moving across India with an army-doctor father, her teenage years living in the United States, and her unexpected return to India, where she went on to win Miss India and Miss World, launching a career she never planned for. From there, the memoir traces her rise through Bollywood, her later move into Hollywood with Quantico, losing her father to cancer, and her marriage to Nick Jonas — all told with the candor she describes as “honest, raw, and vulnerable.”
