Bollywood Beauty Priyanka Chopra Comes to US, Stars in ABC TV Show 'Quantico

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, May 20: Doing his bit to help people in need during the ongoing coronavirus crisis, and the lockdown 4.0 phase, Bollywood actor Salman Khan has initiated ''Being Haangryy''- food truck facility to distribute, provide ration to needy.

To feed the affected people in Mumbai, the food truck with the words ''Being Haangryy'' written on it, was seen in Mumbai roads on Wednesday, where volunteers are providing huge bags of ration. A long queue of people was standing near the truck to get the essentials.

Many videos of the truck moving around the city providing ration kits to the people in need, surfaced on the internet from earlier this month.

However, the Bajrangi Bhaijaan actor has not announced this initiative himself on his personal social media accounts.

The Sultan actor is staying at his Panvel farmhouse with his nephew Nirvaan Khan and other family members ever since the lockdown was announced.

Earlier, the 54-year-old actor urged people to take up the ''Anna Daan'' challenge and donate to the underprivileged ones who are worst affected by the COVID-19 lockdown.

After urging people to take up the ''Anna Daan'' challenge, the actor posted a video on Twitter, that features him and Iulia Vantur, Jacqueline Fernandez among others loading the bags filled with ration on to a truck.

Khan actively posts videos on his social media handles to raise awareness about the importance of social distancing during COVID-19.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie feels discrimination and impunity cannot be justified in any way, and says she hopes people in the US can come together to "address the deep structural wrongs in our society".

The Oscar-winning star, who turned 45 on Thursday, also donated $200,000 to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, reports people.com.

"Rights don't belong to any one group to give to another. Discrimination and impunity cannot be tolerated, explained away or justified. I hope we can come together as Americans to address the deep structural wrongs in our society," Jolie said.

"I stand with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund in their fight for racial equality, social justice, and their call for urgent legislative reform," she added.

Meanwhile, the actress celebrated her birthday amid lockdown with her six children -- Maddox, 18, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and 11-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

The actress and activist has been active since the COVID-19 pandemic spread around the world and has donated to different organisations.

Jolie previously donated $1 million to No Kid Hungry, the organisation working to feed children during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"I knew that there were problems in America, that there was poverty, but I could not believe when I realised how many school children in America were dependent on a meal to not go hungry. I was so disgusted that we have gotten to this point as a country and that we would let the most vulnerable be in such a state. I can't imagine what it feels like for those parents," she said while opening up about her reason to get associated with the organisation.
