Chopra's cousins Meera Chopra and Mannara Chopra are also actresses. Mannara Chopra told the Hindustan Times in May that the cousins keep in touch amid their busy schedules via a WhatsApp group chat.

"We are extremely close-knit and keep in touch with each other all the time," she said. "We know what's happening in each other's lives. It is mandatory for us to share pictures from wherever we are."

Frozen 2, a sequel to the 2013 blockbuster Frozen, opens in theaters Nov. 22. Josh Gad, who voices Olaf in the English version, said on Instagram this week that he "wept" while seeing the finished film.

"I laughed, I gasped, I applauded and I wept. #frozen2 is stunning and surprising in many ways," the actor said.
