Quantico star Priyanka Chopra and the producers at ABC issued apologies after a recent episode of the drama, titled “The Blood of Romeo,” sparked a backlash over its depiction of Indian terrorists. “The Blood of Romeo,” which aired on June 1, saw Chopra’s FBI agent Alex Parrish thwarting a terrorist attack by Indian nationalists, who sought to blame the planned violence on Pakistan — all this just days before a summit between India and Pakistan. The content sparked a firestorm online with some viewers calling it a “nonsensical” and “stupid ass episode,” while others asked how Chopra, an Indian actress, could have gone along with the storyline. “ABC Studios and the executive producers of Quantico would like to extend an apology to our audience who were offended by the most recent episode, ‘The Blood of Romeo,'” a statement from ABC Studios and the producers read.
