Priyanka Chopra Jonas may not make her usual appearance at the Met Gala this year, with multiple professional obligations appearing to take precedence over the annual fashion event in New York.

According to reports, the actor is currently engaged in a demanding international schedule tied to the upcoming season of *Citadel*. The series is set to release on May 6, and Chopra Jonas has been travelling extensively as part of its global promotional tour. The timing of these commitments appears to overlap directly with the Met Gala, making her attendance unlikely.

There are also indications that her ongoing filming work has further limited her availability. Reports suggest she has been involved in shoots for her upcoming project *Varanasi*, which has kept her away from New York in the lead-up to the event.

A source quoted by HTCity said Chopra Jonas is balancing back-to-back commitments, noting that her press tour for *Citadel* will be followed by immediate travel to Los Angeles. There, she is expected to attend the Gold House Gala, where she will receive the Global Vanguard Award for the second consecutive year.

Her potential absence would mark a noticeable shift at the Met Gala, where she has been a regular since her debut in 2017. Over the years, Chopra Jonas has become one of the event’s most closely watched attendees, known for bold fashion choices that often generate significant attention both on and off the red carpet.

Even without a Met Gala appearance this year, her schedule suggests little pause. The transition from promotional work to recognition at the Gold House Gala underscores a period of sustained professional activity.
