Ranveer Singh sent the internet into a meltdown on Wednesday as he commented on American pop star Nick Jonas' workout video on Instagram and addressed him as 'jiju'. Ranveer shares a great friendship with his 'Bajirao Mastani' co-actor Priyanka Chopra Jonas and seems like he is also made friends with her husband Nick.
Speaking about the video that Nick posted on Instagram, the clip shows him working out with dumbbells, with his bulging biceps stealing all the attention. Nick captioned the video saying, "Let’s get it!"
However, what caught everyone's attention was Ranveer Singh's comment, who reacted to the video, saying, "Oho! Jiju! Dolle-Sholle."

Nick and Ranveer often comment on each other's posts on Instagram. Recently, Nick had expressed his fondness for Ranveer by saying that he would like to have a Nutella jar with Ranveer's picture on it. Ranveer had shared a video as he partnered with Nutella for a giveaway where winners were to get customised jars with his picture and name on them. Nick commented on the video, asking, "So what are the prizes?!" He further said, "I’m gonna enter. I’m hoping I get one of those custom RANVEER jars."
Professionally, Ranveer and Nick's wife and superstar Priyanka Chopra have starred in three films together 'Gunday', 'Dil Dhadakne Do', and 'Bajirao Mastani' while Priyanka had also featured in a special dance number in his film, 'Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela' co-starring Deepika Padukone.
Priyanka often calls him 'Ranno' in their teasing on social media, and had named him 'Nazuk Nawab' during the making of Gunday. Speaking about his nickname, Priyanka had earlier told Hindustan Times, "I started calling him Nazuk Nawab when we didn’t know that he was suffering from dengue. Before the diagnosis, he would feel week and feverish on the sets. That is when I came up with the name."
