Sooraj Barjatya backs Rupali Ganguly's call for National Awards for TV actors
Television actor Rupali Ganguly recently urged that the National Awards should also recognise television actors, highlighting that they work just as hard as their counterparts in films. Now, filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya has agreed with her demand, stating that TV deserves equal recognition at the prestigious to Rupali's statement, Sooraj told Telly Talk India, 'I believe they should. TV is an art form, and it demands immense hard work. If you visit a TV set, you'll see - it's a minimum of 12-14 hours of continuous work. In films, actors still get breathers, but in TV, actors must continuously live their roles, and directors must constantly shoot under restrictions, yet create something touching. If I were asked to direct one episode, I'd take a week! So yes, National Awards should include television actors.'Earlier, Rupali spoke to paparazzo Viral Bhayani about the lack of recognition for TV artistes. She said, 'There are National Awards for everyone from film stars to content creators. But there's nothing for TV artistes. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, others had the advantage of delaying their shooting schedules, but we kept working. When a film star works continuously, it makes headlines. But no one talked about how we, the TV artists, worked non-stop from 6 am to 6 pm during the pandemic. I request the government to consider us also. We work very hard; it would be nice to have some validation.'advertisementMeanwhile, Barjatya's Rajshri Productions has made a comeback to television after five years with the new show 'Manpasand Ki Shaadi'. Starring Esha Suryawanshi and Akshun Mahajan, the drama follows a young woman challenging her family's traditional mindset toward marriage and seeking the right to choose her Ganguly, on her part, continues to win hearts with her portrayal in 'Anupamaa', one of the most popular and top-rated shows on Indian television since its premiere in 2020.- EndsMust Watch
