Priyanka Chopra in “Dil Dhadakne Do.”


Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra, who is currently busy with the shoot of her maiden American TV series “Quantico” in the U.S. and Canada, says she had no idea that working for a small screen show could be so hectic.


“Quantico” is a story about a diverse group of recruits who have arrived at the FBI Quantico Base for training.

In the ABC thriller series, 32-year-old Priyanka Chopra plays the lead role of Alex Parish, an agent whose past resurfaces soon after she arrives at the training camp.

“So much work!! I didn’t know TV was so many scenes in one day.. NYC, LA, Montreal in a matter of a week!! Craaaaay,” the “Mary Kom” star posted on Twitter.

The series has been penned and executive produced by Josh Safran.

The actress has been cast as the female lead in the plot, which also stars Dougray Scott, Jake McLaughlin, Aunjanue Ellis, Yasmine Al Masri, Johanna Braddy, Tate Ellington and Grahaam Rogers.

“Quantico” premiers this fall.
