ABC apologizes for Quantico episode that caused controversy in India

The Hollywood Reporter

Indians fumed over a recently aired episode of the ABC drama revolving around Indian terrorists plotting an attack in Manhattan with the goal of blaming Pakistan for it. “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,'" the network said in a statement. "ABC added that “the episode has stirred a lot of emotion, much of which is unfairly aimed at Priyanka Chopra, who didn’t create the show, nor does she write or direct it. She has no involvement in the casting of the show or the storylines depicted in the series.”
