I seriously don’t get the actors of today. Either they are actors or clerks on a 9-5 job.
They come for shoots at a stipulated time and go back when they are done. I did not know that acting had become a sedentary job. Where are the people who actually want to add more to their character and stay true to their skill? Acting was supposed to be a profession! Not a menial job!
It is definitely not what it used to be.
I agree that the scope of television has widened and the competition has increased but should this be the reason for the quality of actors to decrease?
I am sure many serials from the past make you nostalgic for eg: “Shanti” and “Aurat” but would you say the same for today’s TV entertainment? I think not.
It’s upon an actor to make his character memorable but if he/she doing it just for the money; be prepared for more serials and reality TV in the near future.
