Priyanka Chopra found it ‘weird’ to audition for Quantico

More from the world of Entertainment:

“When I picked ‘Quantico’ as a script, I had to meet them and they had to meet me and I had to do a reading,” Priyanka said after stating that auditioning for actors is not common in India.

“I had never been in a stare-out room with seven people sitting there and had to perform. It was such a weird thing for an actor to do,” she added.

The 34-year-old, who plays the role of an FBI agent named Alex Parrish in Quantico, said: “I mean, I can make a complete idiot out of myself in front of 80,000 people on stage, but that is a moment which is like, my hands are getting sweaty thinking about it.”
