She said the award meant "the world" to her during her acceptance speech.

"Thank you to the people. This has been an incredible journey. Every single woman that [was] nominated with me today, all these incredible actresses are the reason that I joined television," she said on stage.

"Being in the same category as them is so overwhelming.

Thank you to all of you who have accepted me and loved my show, my wonderful cast... this means the world to me," said Priyanka.

Joking about her concussion, she said, "I am really excited. Can I do a little wiggle? Sorry, it's the concussion talking."

Earlier on the red carpet, Priyanka opened up about her minor head injury after an accident on the Quantico sets.

When asked if she was fit enough to attend the award show, the actress said, "I was a little nervous. I didn't know if I would make it, but I got so bored sitting on my couch for three days.

"As long as I don't do any action and stuff, I'm supposed to be fine. It was actually scary. I've never got hurt before on-set while I do stunts, I always do them myself. This was just a one-off," she said.
