(She) is resting comfortably at home on doctor's orders, and will return to work after the weekend," a representative for the actress said, according to Press Trust of India.
The incident came to light when Chopra skipped Friday's press event for Quantico. When press arrived for the event, they were informed that Chopra was not feeling well as she met with an accident overnight. The press conference will now be held before January 23, the mid-season premiere date of Quantico, ET online reported.
Meanwhile, the accident has not halted the production of the show. The Baywatch actress is expected to resume shooting after the weekend, her representative told US magazine.
