She was invited to the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner hosted by US President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. The dinner will take place on Saturday.
When Bollywood's
desi girl was asked about the dinner on Twitter on Wednesday, she wrote:
Priyanka, who found global recognition with her character Alex Parrish in the American TV series
Quantico, was earlier "not sure" about attending the dinner due to her work commitments.
The 33-year-old

Priyanka will be dining with some of Hollywood's biggest names like Will Smith, his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, Kerry Washington, Shonda Rhimes, Kim Kardashian's model sister Kendall Jenner and others.
The non-profit White House Correspondents' Association, whose members include the reporters, producers, camera operators and other journalists regularly covering the White House, traditionally hosts this annual dinner to raise money for journalism scholarships.
