Granted, this is going to be the hundredth article you’ll come across pointing out the weaknesses of the show, but before you decide to close the link accompanied by that feeling of déjà vu, hear us out. 
 This article is going to be a critique of the reasons behind <keyword id="253731" type="CITY" weightage="80" keywordseo="Quantico">Quantico</keyword> being the easy target of mass disapproval; however what this article is not going to be is a display of demeaning the potential of <keyword id="1655" type="PERSON" weightage="80" keywordseo="Priyanka-Chopra">Priyanka Chopra</keyword>, who plays the lead. 
 
Priyanka Chopra isn’t what’s wrong with Quantico. (Well, not entirely). Where the show falls flat is in its execution of its far-fetched ideas. Agreed, Priyanka Chopra as <keyword id="2845440" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Alex-Parrish">Alex Parrish</keyword> is not at her best- at times even reprising the role of a borderline annoying lead that you really cannot really root for. Her scenes with Ryan Booth (her romantic interest in the show) where she tries her best to be seductive yet playful is testimony to the fact. Her terrible hairstyle doesn’t help either. 
 
But, in our haste to critically point how bad Priyanka Chopra is as Alex Parrish, we completely forget to address how bad Quantico is at being a FBI thriller/drama show. 
 
The storyline is your typical run-of-the-mill noble FBI agent being framed as a terrorist and her trying to escape arrest while trying to find out who framed her. The characters are nothing remarkable either, barring a few (Chopra’s character being the biggest disappointment). Though the plot has been successful in beating around the bush till now, it has been unsuccessfully repeating same old sub-plots that really don’t need reminding at the same time (Case in point- Priyanka’s father situation). 
 
And, add to that, the fact that every FBI training exercise in the show is so ridiculous that it continues making CID look better and better. (If that’s not a problem, what is?) 
 
I’ve been unimpressed by Quantico since it’s trailer and yet I’ve faithfully consumed all of its offerings. Right from the first eight minutes of the first episode until the fourth (titled ‘Kill’), I’ve followed every episode with utmost glee. This is the only area where Quantico wins. Despite being a pretty average show, it is able to maintain a steady viewership solely because of those five minutes of absolutely gripping storyline out of the 40 minute runtime that has us hooked. 
 
The problem is thus, Quantico is a show that has all the pieces of the puzzle, but has unfortunately not managed to solve the puzzle as of yet. 
 
That is the tragedy. That is why Quantico is above average and not the show that we expected in our heads.

Here’s what’s wrong with Quantico and no, it’s not
Priyanka Chopra.

The first eight minutes of <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/How-ABCs-Scandal-Gets-2200-Tweets-Per-Minute/articleshow/21370581.cms">ABC’s</a> latest offering <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/Watch-Priyanka-Chopra-as-an-FBI-Agent-in-the-trailer-of-Quantico/articleshow/47264370.cms">Quantico</a> is out and it’s clichéd as hell. 
 Created by Joshua Safran, <keyword id="253731" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Quantico">Quantico</keyword> traces the lives of a group of young FBI recruits, training at the FBI Training Academy in Quantico, Virginia. 
The lead is played by one of Bollywood’s finest <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/Priyanka-Chopra-releases-first-look-of-Jai-GangaaJal-on-Prakash-Jhas-request/articleshow/48984128.cms">Priyanka Chopra</a> who essays the role of <keyword id="2845440" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Alex-Parrish">Alex Parrish</keyword>. 
 
The thriller is slated to go on air from the 27th of September, but the makers decided to go ahead and give us a sneak-peak by releasing the first eight minutes of the first episode, because a trailer’s just not enough. 
 The episode starts out with familarising us with <keyword id="1655" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Priyanka-Chopra">Priyanka Chopra</keyword>’s character lying face down amidst wreckage and it then cuts to the past where we are shown Piggy Chops lying to her mother like a true American daughter about going to the station, but instead heading out to the airport. 
 
In the plane, Priyanka Chopra’s Alex Parrish flirts with a stranger, Ryan Booth with whom she hooks up with in a car, presumably a few minutes after the plane lands. Have to admit, girl’s got her priorities in place. 
 
The stranger, like all other guys in the universe, gets a little too curious and asks Priyanka her name to which he is shown his place when she unwilling to reveal her identity uncovers everything about him, and more in just five points. This scene is easily the best and then only watchable scene in the eight minutes of ‘Have we not seen this in every crime thriller ever?’ also known as Quantico. 
 
However, Chopra soon finds out that the elusive stranger turns out to be her new classmate in the training academy. Awkward alert. 
 
We also get a brief introduction into the lives of the other recruits and we’re intrigued by what Nimah Anwar’s (played by Yasmin Al Marsi) backstory is. 
 
All in all, the first eight minutes of Quantico reveals nothing that we haven’t seen before except Priyanka Chopra trying really hard to fit. Her accent does sounds believable, her acting not quite. And, she looks straight out of Dostana, for some reason. 
 
The icing on the cake however, is the last scene which takes us back to a bruised Priyanka Chopra lying amidst the wreckage and turns out it’s a site of an explosion. 
 
Totally did not guess that.

Los Angeles, Jul 1 () Actor Priyanka Chopra Jonas has struck a two-year television deal with Amazon. The 37-year-old actor shared the news about her "multimillion-dollar" first look deal with the streamer in a post on Instagram."So honoured and excited to finally share this news with you. Looking ahead, we already have so much on our slate! Big thank you to @jsalke and her team at Amazon for being such great partners, and for sharing in the belief that talent and good content knows no boundaries," Priyanka wrote. The actor, who launched her own production banner Purple Pebble Pictures in 2015, said she aims to create "great content" featuring "creative talent" from all over the world. "This has always been the DNA of my production house Purple Pebble Pictures, and is the foundation of this exciting new endeavour with Amazon. "And as a storyteller, my quest is to constantly push myself to explore new ideas that not only entertain, but most importantly, open minds and perspectives," Priyanka said. She thanked her fans for being a "big part of my journey so far". "And for those who are just getting to know me, or maybe only recognise me as Alex Parrish from 'Quantico', I'm excited for you to get to know me better," Priyanka concluded. Priyanka, who started her Hollywood career with ABC series "Quantico", has featured in films such as "Baywatch" and "Isn't It Romantic". Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke told Variety that she bonded with the actor over their "shared passion for diverse global storytelling". "Priyanka is drawn to exciting original content and characters that can resonate globally. She's a powerhouse producer, and we are thrilled to collaborate with her for years to come," she added. Prior to her deal with Amazon, the actor lined up two projects with the streamer. She will star opposite "Game of Thrones" actor Richard Madden in upcoming thriller series "Citadel", to be produced by Anthony and Joe Russo. The actor will also feature in "Sangeet", an unscripted series co-produced with her husband, Nick Jonas. Priyanka's another project with Amazon is a film about Ma Anand Sheela, the assistant to guru Bhagwan Rajneesh (also known as Osho). The actor will be producing the movie which is based on Netflix docu-series "Wild Wild Country". Besides her association with Amazon, the actor will next star in two Netflix projects -- superhero movie "We Can Be Heroes" and "The White Tiger", opposite Rajkummar Rao. She is currently shooting for Keanu Reeves-starrer "The Matrix 4", which recently resumed filming after production was halted by the pandemic. RB \ BK BK

Meet Priyanka Chopra, the fast-rising actress and one of the 'most influential people' in the world

It’s been long that we heard anything about Priyanka Chopra’s American TV Show Quantico, in which she plays Alex Parrish, a young FBI recruit undergoing hardcore training. 
 
The actress who was till now busy promoting her movie Dil Dhadakne Do took to social networking site Twitter to share another glimpse of her character from the anticipated show. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en">
	
		Didn’t know it was online already!! New <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Quantico?src=hash">#Quantico</a> teaser.. Is this the right link? <a href="https://twitter.com/QuanticoTV">@QuanticoTV</a> lol <a href="https://t.co/VU2AQRb5LB">https://t.co/VU2AQRb5LB</a>

The trailer shows a shackled Priyanka wrapped in a flag with the logo of FBI National Academy, and the voice over claims her to be “World’s Most Wanted”. 
 
Hot, to say the least. Even though Dil Dhadakne Do didn’t live up to the expectations, we hope that this new project of Bollywood’s very own beauty queen shines in the American sky.

If you were friends with Naya Rivera, you simply can't," the actor wrote.He continued: "Her brilliance and humor were unmatched. Her beauty and talent were otherworldly. She spoke truth to power with poise and fearlessness. She could turn a bad day into a great day with a single remark. She inspired and uplifted people without even trying.

"The amount of times she would memorize all of those crazy monologues on Glee the morning of and would never ever mess up during the scene… I mean, she was clearly more talented than the rest of us. She was the most talented person I've ever known. There is nothing she couldn't do and I'm furious we won't get to see more."McHale also reacted to a video of Rivera and Monteith greeting fans and <a href="https://twitter.com/druidDUDE/status/1282879621805993986">wrote</a>: "I'm not religious by any means, but you'd be hard-pressed to convince me that Cory didn't help find our girl today. These 2, in many ways, were the male and female versions of one another. So nice, cared deeply, were stupidly talented, the most fun, and really really good people."Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina Cohen-Chang) <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CCmW_cag1dG/">said</a> that Rivera "shined on stage and screen and radiated with love behind closed doors.""Our friendship went in waves as life happens and we grow, so I will not look back and regret but know I love you and promise to help the legacy of your talent, humor, light, and loyalty live on," the actress wrote.<a href="https://www.insider.com/category/darren-criss">Darren Criss</a> (Blaine Anderson) called Rivera "bold," "outrageous," and "a LOT of fun."⁣"She played by her own rules and was in a class of her own," he said in posts shared on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CCmnEMijgFE/">Instagram</a> and Twitter.

Jane Lynch, Chris Colfer, and more celebrities react to 'Glee' star Naya Rivera's death at 33

The header photo of <keyword id="1655" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Priyanka-Chopra">Priyanka Chopra</keyword>’s Twitter account shows her in two avatars; one as SP Abha Mathur from the latest release <keyword id="3056512" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Jai-Gangaajal">Jai Gangaajal</keyword> and other as FBI recruit Alex Parrish from her American show <keyword id="253731" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Quantico">Quantico</keyword>. 
 What’s common amongst the two, you might ask? In both the avatars, Chopra has shed the “Miss Goody two shoes” image and can be seen with a gun in her hands. That’s exactly what Priyanka has been doing in the recent past, refusing to do what everyone else from her contemporaries is doing and being up for the challenge of playing an action hero, probably the first one in <keyword id="143" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Bollywood">Bollywood</keyword>. 
 
Let’s look at her stint as SP Abha Mathur, and since the movie is freshly out of the oven, we only have the trailers to draw references from. In the trailer, her introductory scene shows her with a wooden protective shield that has been put on fire by protestors. She looks stern, determined and when she takes out a bamboo stick from her police jeep and beats criminals black and blue, that’s when we know that she means business as the SP of Bankepur. 
 
In the second trailer, she invokes courage in common people to step up for what’s right, with some kicks and slaps usual for policewomen, though highly unusual for the leading ladies of Bollywood, who so far have believed only in being the damsels of distress, barring a few scenes here and there in some movies. 
 So, coming back to <keyword id="1078051" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="PeeCee">PeeCee</keyword>, she has established herself in the top league of Indian cinema, and is known worldwide for that; this is no hidden fact. After all, why would she be invited to present an Oscar, being only the second Indian to do so, after Miss India Persis Khambatta in 1980? 
 
She has been doing everything that we expect a mainstream Indian male actor to do to make Bollywood and India proud. She is acting well in critically acclaimed movies, the last one being Bajirao Mastani where she made her presence felt even though she was the second lead after Deepika Padukone; she is going beyond the borders, being the first Indian to be cast in a primetime TV show by an American production company, and Quantico’s success is the stamp of her being accepted. Not only this, she has also signed up for the role of antagonist Victoria Leeds in the next Baywatch movie, alongwith Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. 
 
So, in a time when most Bollywood actors are either working on nonsensical but mega budget projects only to be hooted by intelligent audience and critics, let’s take a moment and thank Priyanka Chopra for showing that even females can be the heroes, and top ones at that.
