How to capture the return value from controller action

I am using uploadify to upload .csv files on my ASP.NET MVC app. From the controller action I return a JSON with a couple of values like this:

return Json(new { success = false, message = result.Message });

The following is the uploadify code: 

$("#email").uploadify(
                    {
                    'uploader': '/js/component/uploadify/uploadify.swf',
                    'script': '/email/UploadEmail',
                    'cancelImg': '/js/component/uploadify/cancel.png',
                    'fileExt': '*.csv',
                    'fileDesc': '*.csv',
                    'auto': true,
                    'multi': false,
                    'buttonText': 'Upload...',

                        'onComplete': function (event, queueID, fileObj, response, data)
                            {

                                alert(jQuery.parseJSON(response));
                                alert(jQuery.parseJSON(response.message));
                                var filename = fileObj.name;
                                $('#emailSuppressionFile').append('<input id="' + queueID + '" type="hidden" name="files[' + queueID + ']" value="' + filename + '" />');                                   
}                                
                    });

I am trying to read the "message" that I returned from the controller action but can't figure out how. Please see the alerts above.The first alert returns: [object Object] and the second return null.

In old version of Uploadify onComplete event, use to provide response back from Controller. But, in latest version you need to use onUploadSuccess event, like this,

   'onUploadSuccess' : function(file, data, response) {
         alert('The file ' + file.name + ' was successfully uploaded with a response of ' + response + ':' + data);
    }

Try like this:

onComplete: function(event, queueID, fileObj, response, data) {
    var json = jQuery.parseJSON(response);
    alert(json.message);
},

Also don't put quotes around the event name.
