Priyanka Chopra apologises for Hindu terror plot in Quantico

International star Priyanka Chopra on Sunday apologised for a recent episode of her US show Quantico, which showed 'Indian nationalists' planning to carry out a terrorist attack in Manhattan and frame Pakistan for it days before a summit on Kashmir.

Taking to Twitter, Chopra tweeted,''"I'm extremely saddened and sorry that some sentiments have been hurt by a recent episode of Quantico. That was not and would never be my intention. I sincerely apologise. I'm a proud Indian and that will never change."

Chopra's apology comes a day after ABC Studios too expressed regret over the story plot, saying it stepped into a "complex political issue".

The episode, titled 'The Blood of Romeo', had received a lot of backlash from Indian fans of the show, who criticised Chopra of being a part of the storyline that put India in the negative light. They also blamed the writers of wading into the India-Pakistan issue without much understanding.
