International star Priyanka Chopra leaves the set of 'Quantico' to talk with Stephen about moving from India to New York.
 
Talking about Bollywood, Colbert asked Priyanka why she doesn’t like the term, to which she replied, “I don’t think a lot of Indian actors like the term Bollywood also, because I think around the world Bollywood has been reduced to a Zumba class.”
 
In fact, she almost jumped up with joy at the success of La La Land, because now she thinks there is a chance for people from around the world to understand that musicals are not just random break out into song and dance.
 
Our favourite part was when Priyanka and Colbert tried to come up with a term for Bollywood that is more Indian. It was pointed out to Colbert that while Hollywood is a place that can be spotted on the map, Bollywood on the other hand is no place! Mumbai would be accurate, right? Colbert comes up with the most unoriginal name – “Mumbaiwood” and Priyanka stuns him into silence with “Why does it have to be wood?”
