In his recently released stand up special, The King’s Jester, Hasan took a dig at Priyanka-Nick’s marriage saying, “Priyanka Chopra’s wedding was fake. Why can’t we say that? Who marries Nick Jonas unironically?,” as he pointed out some of his ‘honest’ opinions as jokes. He also mentioned that activist Malala Yousafzai follows him on Instagram while he doesn’t follow her back.
