In the viral videos from the event, Priyanka spoke about her journey to Hollywood, and also the presence of South Asian artists in Hollywood at the party that was organised to celebrate South Asian excellence in films. In one of the viral videos, Priyanka said, "Each and everyone of you are here today because you are excellent in what you do. I came ten years ago and started looking for work in America."
Recalling the time when she was the only brown celebrity at the party she said, "We went out there and met everyone else. But today, I am not someone else. Today, I stand amongst peers, amongst colleagues, amongst South Asian excellence. I have goosebumps, I am emotional, it makes me very proud."
Priyanka also talked about how she and Nick are keeping busy after the arrival of their daughter in January. She said, "Haven't been stepping out anywhere but had to come here tonight just to say this that I'm highly proud to be rubbing shoulders with all of you, to be encouraging you."
"Make business plans, make deals, let's get out there, let's forge a path where we are unstoppable and that can only happen if we do it together. I'm gonna do that tonight," Priyanka said in a viral video.
