Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra has another notch on her belt. Her rising popularity has seen her grace the covers of Time and Elle magazine and she's even made it to Time's list of "100 Most Influential People", and last night she got to dine with none other than President Obama and First Lady Michelle at the White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington.
The 33-year-old "Quantico" star, who is currently shooting in the US for the movie reboot of "Baywatch", dazzled in a deep-cut, black and sheer-stripe Zuhair Murad gown.
She looked gorgeous in her tiered black gown with sheer inserts and the plunging neckline.
Priyanka took to Twitter and Instagram to share about her meeting with the Obamas.
"Lovely to meet the very funny and charming @barackobama and the beautiful @flotus. Thank you...," she wrote along with a picture.

While congratulating Priyanka on her success another Bollywood actress Kalki recently told IANS that, "You only get paid more (in Bollywood) than a man if you are Priyanka Chopra."
At the Washington-insider event, attended by journalists, celebrities, politicians and advertisers, Obama did not hold back and he took jibes at Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, CNN's Jake Tapper among others.
The 2016 White House Correspondents' dinner, which was President Obama's last in office, was hosted by comedian Larry Wilmore.
The guest list for the night included big names like, Emma Watson, Michele Dockery, Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith, Aretha Franklin, Karlie Kloss, Adriana Lima and Kendall Jenner amongst others.
