Los Angeles, June 12 : The high-budget spy thriller drama 'Citadel' which stars Priyanka Chopra Jonas has received a somewhat lukewarm reception and performed sluggishly in the US.

In response, Amazon Head of Drama, Odetta Watkins has called the show a "victory" but also that it "needs time to grow", as it is yet to crack Nielsen's weekly streaming rankings.

Speaking to Deadline, Odetta Watkins spoke about the slow performance of the show in the US and said: "I can tell you from a creative perspective, for me, it's a victory, because the show was conceived to be able to speak to the world."
