Pearl Thusi pens down a gratitude note for her role on US TV series, Quantico, which she bagged in 2016.
Reminiscing on her role as Dayana Mampasi, the actress says she never saw it coming.
The South African star then appreciated other stars she worked with on the series. Priyanka Chopra was one of them.
“To be cast on the most popular show in the US at the time was something I never expected. I can never thank @joshsafran enough for this opportunity. For believing in me- and @bethshaxprivate for always encouraging me. Will always love you guys.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To think this girl from a small township in KZN was going to be on screens all over the world was crazy and I learnt so much that’s brought me to where I am today.”
“Learning by example from @PriyankaChopra on how to be a true #1 on the call sheet as a woman of colour was so inspiring. And I look back and think “what a strong spirit with such a kind heart!” . Handles everything with so much grace and class,” Pearl added.
