The actor informed the fans that the restaurant will open later this month. She accompanied the post with three pictures, one of the restaurant and two from the small prayer ceremony she and her family, including husband Nick Jonas, performed in 2019 before beginning work on the food joint.

“The second and third photos were taken in September 2019 when we performed a small intimate Puja (prayer ceremony) to bless the space that would soon become @sonanewyork Godspeed!” She wrote. While one photo has Priyanka with Nick, the other captures her with restaurateur Maneesh Goyal, with whom she has collaborated for Sona.

Also seen in the photo is Priyanka’s mother Madhu Chopra. Soon after Priyanka made the announcement, her father-in-law posted an adorable Instagram story sharing her post about the restaurant and asking her, “When do we eat?” To which, Priyanka replied, “Any time, senior. It’s yours…”

Maneesh Goyal also penned a post dedicated to Priyanka, about how the actor-producer has been the “creative force” behind Sona.
