June 23, 2015

Mumbai, Jun 23: Priyanka Chopra plays Alex in ABC new show Quantico which premieres this fall. She is the husky voice featured in the promo that aired during the NBA final. Priyanka signed a talent deal with ABC. This television role is the first shot across our North American bows by the far East giants of Bollywood. It will be interesting to see how it plays out with Priyanka. Seeing such a famous Bollywood star on American TV is reason enough to give the series a chance to succeed. It will, at least, draw a lot of curiosity.

Priyanka-ChopraQuantico is about a group of recruits who have joined the FBI and have gone through the strict training. According to The Christian Post, there will be a lot of attention paid to the back story of all the characters via flashback. This being a melodrama, one of the bunch will be a sleeper placed by a foreign government. Quantico's cast includes Aunjanue Ellis, Dougray Scott and Tate Ellington.

Jake McLaughlin is the male lead and romantic interest for Priyanka Chopra character Alex Parish. Television writer/producer Joshua Safran, best known for Gossip Girl, is the show's creator and executive producer.

Priyanka Chopra is one of a rich assortment of very busy Indian actresses. She has kept busy doing films in India while shooting Quantico. In an interview with GlamSham, Chopra said she is getting a little tired but says that mentally she is ready to go.

Hollywood has not made much use of anyone from the Indian film community, so everyone is hopeful that Priyaka's shot on American TV is a successful one. The multi-talented Priyankà Chopra is a very good bet for North American success, as the former Miss World 2000 has had a lot of success in several fields: she is a former beauty queen, a successful singer, an activist for children's and female rights and one of the most popular actresses in the world's biggest film communities, Bollywood. Her most famous films include Don, Fashion and Krrish3.

Quantico debuts after another new series Blood and Oil on Sunday September 27.

Mumbai, Apr 19: It is important to stay united and have faith in each other to fight the coronavirus pandemic, veteran lyricist-screenwriter Javed Akhtar said on Sunday, expressing concerns over the attack on healthcare workers and cases of communal tension in the country.

In a video shared by Akhtar's wife, veteran actor Shabana Azmi on Twitter, the writer urged people to stand together in this time of crisis.

"The country is undergoing a crisis at this point of time. To fight this crisis called coronavirus, it is important for us to be united. If we will keep suspecting each other or won't understand each other's intentions, there will be no unity, then how will we fight it?

"You must salute these doctors who are endangering their lives to test you. Unless you get tested, you will not know whether you have the disease or not. You can be treated only after that. It's a matter of stupidity that, I've heard, people are pelting stones on those doctors. This should not be done," Akhtar said in the 2 minute-long clip.

The 75-year-old lyricist also said that targeting a particular community defeats the goal of unity.

"I also hear that shops of a particular community are being shut, 'thelas' are being overturned or people are hit so that they can flee. This is not how unity works. We will have to believe each other. We all are citizens of this country," he said.

Akhtar appealed to the Muslim community to offer prayers from home in the holy month of Ramzan, which will begin from April 24 or April 25.

"I request all the Muslim brothers that now that Ramzan is coming, please say your prayers but make sure that this doesn't cause problems to anyone else. The prayers that you do in the mosque, you can do that at home. According to you, the house, the ground, this all has been made by Him. Then you can do your prayers anywhere," he said.

"Ensure that your speech, slogans and deeds don't create any suspicion in the minds of others. And to all the other citizens of the country, I'd say please have faith in each other, practice unity, don't resort to hatred. Only with the help of love and trust, we will be able to fight with the coronavirus," he added.
