India likely to censor Priyanka Chopra’s lovemaking scene in Quantico first episode (With video)

Staff correspondent, September 18, NewsCrunch

Though Quantico is scheduled to hit the TV later this month, ABC has released excerpts of the first episode.

The eight-minute video introduces the key characters, who have been invited to join the FBI academy.

Priyanka Chopra, who plays FBI agent Alex, flies to Virginiato report for training. She meets a handsome stranger in the plane, who says he is on his way to Manila. She is obviously attracted to him.

The next scene shows both of them making love in a parked SUV with Priyanka Chopra moaning loudly, breaking into an orgasm and then putting back her panties.

In India, Quantico will feature on Star TV on 9 pm Saturdays, which is prime time family viewing spot. And, Indian censors do not allow anyone on TV even to utter the word sex.

So, you can expect this scene, which is now on YouTube, to get deleted on the editing table.  

But if the scene is cut out, the first episode would lose a crucial twist in the tale.

After making love to the stranger, Priyanka Chopra makes it clear that it is just a one-time fling for her. She lists five reasons on why she cannot trust him enough to have a long-term relationship.

She ignores the man’s protests and walks away.

When Priyanka Chopra lands at the FBI Quantico base to start training, she sees the stranger among the batch of the new recruits.
