Sayantani Ghosh slams Radhika Madan for looking down upon TV

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Sayantani Ghosh, who is considered to be the small screen's original Naagin, has expressed her displeasure over Radhika Madan's comments on
the television industry
In her recent interview on a YouTube channel, Sayantani said the exact line of Radhika with which she had a problem was when she was told on
set, "Garma garam script aa rahi hai, madam aap jaake perform karo."Sayantani praised Radhika's 'acting prowess' at the outset
But then revealed that Radhika's interview to an entertainment portal left her 'hurt, disappointed and angry'.The actress said, "Radhika
talked about her reasons for transitioning from television to films where she spoke about long working hours, non availability of scripts,
being treated like machines etc
There was also a portion where Radhika's director told her to do the scene rather than discuss it because it wasn't a film set where they
could do so for three days."Sayantani shared, "When people start from TV and reach a certain status, then why do they bicker about
television ka yeh hai...woh hai
Television feeds hundreds of homes, it gives you employment, and the biggest of TV stars also choose the medium to promote their films
I have a problem with the approach
You want to do a movie
You start with TV, you become a star, you earn so much money which gives you the holding power to start your movie journey and you can
choose to wait for the right time."Read AlsoExclusive! The unit of Ali Baba returns to original set, where Tunisha Sharma died; co-actor

treat TV as a stepping stone and have respect for the medium for giving them technical expertise and honing their skills.
