The episode that aired on June 1 had the social media up in arms and despite the makers, ABC Studios apologizing, fans questioned vehemently as to how Priyanka, an Indian, could even agree to be a part of the controversial story.
The ‘Baywatch’ star made her US TV debut in Quantico in 2015. The crime drama was recently cancelled by the ABC Studios and will not be getting another season.
