Priyanka Chopra's daughter Malti Marie seems to have made a new friend. She is none other than Salman Khan's sister Arpita Khan's little girl, Ayat. On Tuesday, July 8, Priyanka dropped a video on her Instagram Stories featuring the adorable munchkins.
Priyanka Chopra and Arpita Khan happened to meet each other in the US.
In the clip, Malti and Ayat are seen holding hands and chatting joyfully at what appears to be Priyanka Chopra's residence. Malti, 3, looks cute in a blue shirt and beige pants. She is carrying a plush toy in her arms. 5-year-old Ayat, on the other hand, dons a multi-coloured printed dress.
Priyanka Chopra captioned the post, “So good seeing you, Arpita Khan Sharma. Our girls are such besties.”
