After her post, many TV actors supported Ekta Kapoor.
Imran Nazir Khan also said: “It’s not right to criticise your roots as each industry has its own pros and cons and they cater to different kinds of audiences. You cannot run away from your TV journey which gave you a platform to reach where you are now today.”
Commenting on how TV actors are looked down upon by the film industry, the ‘Gathbandhan’ actor shared: “If you are doing TV, Bollywood casting directors or makers prefer freshers than someone from TV. Because there is a preconceived notion that they don’t know acting or are not suitable for web and film content. But still, we never look down upon or dismiss our TV journey or work.”
Recalling how he got rejected because of being from TV, Imran Nazir Khan shared: “It has happened to me as well multiple times in film auditions. I got rejected because I have done TV shows. Just like YouTube creators think tiktok creators are cringe, the same way film actors always think that TV actors are cringe maybe because of the content. But TV is also catering to a large number of audiences and giving work to millions of people.”
