The Bluff star, 43, joins this week’s episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat<\/a> podcast to talk about her beauty pageant days, her upcoming action-thriller film and her life as a mom. In an exclusive clip shared with PEOPLE ahead of the Tuesday, March 10 episode, Chopra Jonas opens up about her and husband Nick Jonas<\/a>‘ decision to keep their daughter Malti, 4, off of social media as she gets older.<\/p>\n “As she’s growing older, we’ve started to also kind of just deflect a little bit,” the mom of one says. “She moves around a lot, [so we] let her have as much anonymity as she can.”<\/p>\n “It is her normal, and people will be curious about her, and I never want her to be fearful of that or judgy or skeptical of the humans that she meets because there are good people in the world, and I’ve had wonderful experiences with friends like that,” Chopra Jonas adds. “It’s okay for her to be aware of it, but to have a sense of choice, I think will be important.”<\/p>\n Chopra Jonas also explains why she hires security when her family of three goes out.<\/p>\n “When we have security out and about, it’s just … to not be recorded without consent because a lot of that happens,” she explains, sharing that her daughter was once followed home from school by a normal person recording her.<\/p>\n While the Heads of State actress has accepted that she decided to have a public life that people are interested in, she says that she wants to ensure her daughter has the ability to make that choice for herself.<\/p>\n “I’ve always been of the opinion that I kind of chose a public life,” Chopra Jonas says. “I’m pragmatic enough to be like that’s the nature of the beast. If you’re gonna live a public life, people will be interested and curious.”<\/p>\n “[When] it comes to children, that’s … terrain we are all learning in the last like 10 to 20 years what that is gonna be like in the next 10 years, 15 years for them,” she continues. “So I think a little bit of grace is required for everyone, but also certain awareness of safety and what that means.”<\/p>\n Priyanka Chopra Jonas and daughter Malti.
