Shakti Arora feels content on TV needs to change, will return if he gets something as interesting as Silsila

Shakti Arora has been away from the television screens for the last two years. Recently, the actor got talking about how he spent his lockdown in an interview with ETimes TV, while also talking about television content at large.

The actor said how he feels that TV needs to try newer concepts and move away from the regular stories. While he mentioned that he is not saying that the current shows are not good, he does feel that the same cliches are being followed. He added how everyone continues to offer the same supernatural shows or even the typical love stories.

The actor added how in the past year, few makers have tried on new concepts, however, there aren't enough interesting and meaty roles for actors who want to act. He added that he feels it is now time for makers to move to interesting scripts and dialogues.

While talking about life after marriage, the actor stated how he feels they both are blessed as they spent some quality time at home and that is also when they realised how it is important to upgrade themselves. The actor quipped how he chose to learn new skills via online courses and given that their careers are rather uncertain, it is courses and studies that will always help since it is also important to earn money and live a good life.

About projects ahead, the actor said that the last year has been difficult and they have to wait and just focus on things to get better. As for work, he also added that he would definitely take up something if it is as interesting as his last show, Silsila.
