Indian actors have always striven hard to prove their worth on the global stage. From the time of Satyajit Ray, artists have entered and conquered Hollywood sensibilities after their own fashion.
Though Hollywood is not new to Kher, this shows how Bollywood is living its Hollywood dream at this very moment. We take a look at other Indian actors who are showing great promise in big American ventures.
Priyanka Chopra in Quantico
PC’s entry into the American TV thriller Quantico grabbed plenty of media attention. In the series, the Barfi actress plays the lead role of a young FBI recruit Alex Parish. What’s more, she’s now been nominated in the Favourite Actress in a New TV Series category for the People’s Choice Award 2016. If she wins that, it’ll just prove that PC has made a big impact in US TV as well.

Her role in Homeland was a big leap from the unhappy housewife Nimrat Kaur played in Lunch Box. In the American series about CIA operations post 9/11, Nimrat has played an ISI agent.
