Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra, a star of "Quantico" - an American TV series on fighting terror - has slammed Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump's call to ban Muslim immigrants from the US.
Ms Chopra shared her views about the battle against extremism, which has come up repeatedly in the 2016 presidential race, at the TIME 100 gala on Tuesday night in New York, reports time.com.
Ms Chopra's name has been featured in Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the world alongside Oscar-winning actor Leonardo DiCaprio, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg, singer Nicki Minaj and Donald Trump.
"I just think you can't put a ban on anyone. Generalising a type of people is really primitive," Ms Chopra said.
She said the fight against terrorism had grown so complex that "you can't put a face on it any more".
After her role of FBI agent Alex Parrish in "Quantico", Ms Chopra landed a role in "Baywatch" alongside Hollywood A-listers Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron.
