In a heartwarming display of family love and admiration, Nick Jonas, of the Jonas Brothers, recently invited Auli'i Cravalho, the voice of "Moana," onto the stage during a concert in Orlando, Florida, for his daughter Malti Marie. The special moment was met with cheers from the crowd, including Priyanka Chopra, Nick's wife and Malti's mother, who beamed with pride.
Malti Marie Chopra Jonas, who turned three in January 2025, is reportedly a huge fan of Disney's "Moana". According to Priyanka Chopra, Malti even introduces herself as "Malti Marie Moana Chopra Jonas" and insists that Moana is officially part of her name, especially at school. Knowing Malti's love for the film, Nick Jonas orchestrated the surprise during the Jonas Brothers' recent concert.
Videos circulating online captured the sweet scene as Nick welcomed Auli'i Cravalho to the stage. He also gave a shoutout to his family, including Priyanka, Malti, and his brother Franklin, who were all near the stage. Malti, seemingly engrossed, watched her father perform alongside "Moana". In one video, she is seen jumping into her mother's arms, overwhelmed with joy.
Priyanka Chopra has often spoken about Malti's love for Disney princesses and her playful nature. She mentioned that Malti enjoys dressing up in her closet, trying on her shoes and dresses. Nick Jonas has also shared how much he cherishes playing "Moana" and Maui with his daughter, emphasizing the importance of their time together. He said that being simply "Dad" when he's home means a lot to him.
The gesture has earned Nick Jonas the title of "Best Dad" from fans and media outlets alike. This isn't the first time Malti has been seen supporting her father's career. In August 2025, a video shared by Nick showed Malti holding a camera and patiently recording him performing on stage. Fans playfully called her the "cutest hire ever" and a "new photographer" for the tour.
Nick and Priyanka married in December 2018 in both a Christian and Hindu ceremony in Jodhpur, India. They welcomed Malti Marie via surrogacy in January 2022. The couple often shares glimpses of their family life on social media, showcasing their strong bond and shared adventures. In December 2024, Priyanka shared photos of their anniversary celebration, which included watching "Moana 2" with Malti and their friends.
The event in Orlando is another example of the couple's dedication to creating special moments for their daughter and integrating their professional lives with their family. Priyanka has always been supportive of Nick and his brothers. She was seen in tears on the opening night of their tour at Yankee Stadium. The couple exemplifies balancing successful careers with family life, often bringing Malti along for work and travel.
