"Truly this is what worked for me; he has to be someone who respects you. By that, I don't mean makes coffee for you, not that. But someone who respects the hard work you put into your life. Who respects that if his work is important, so is yours. Or if he makes choices that are important to him, so is your opinion. That's respect, and that's incredible to have," the 'Baywatch actor told People magazine.

The 36-year-old actor said she does not want women to settle for less than what they deserve in life.

"Then everything is so easy because you give each other credit for your intelligence, you give each other the benefit of the doubt because you trust each other. There's so much that comes out of that. I think don't settle for less than that," she said.

Nick popped the big question to Priyanka during a trip to London on her 36th birthday. In London, he closed down an entire Tiffany&Co. store in order to pick out the perfect ring for his lady love. According to sources, the couple are set to tie the knot "in India in December". They got engaged in a traditional ‘roka’ ceremony at her residence in Mumbai.

On the work front, the actress is currently busy shooting for director Shonali Bose's 'The Sky Is Pink' alongside Zaira Wasim and Farhan Akhtar.
