We talk to TV actors about how they cope with the continuous tension of having their characters scrapped " after going through the rigmarole of giving auditions, preparing for the characters ", not knowing how their roles will finally shape out and how they deal with the insecurity, given that in TV, nothing is long term these days.
Roshini Wallia, who plays Ajabdey in Maharana Pratap, says, "I am sitting at home right now because with the war scenes going on, only the boys are working presently.
"However, what becomes difficult for us is that once we are committed to a show we have to give them almost 20 days. So we are unable to take up any other show. Now for instance Maharana Pratap is going to take a leap... the stars will be shown as grown ups. We will have to wait until the channel gets the right match...
Once they find the grown ups on par with our characters, we will celebrate our marriage and that will be our last day. "
Vishal Jadeja, who plays Akbar in the same show adds, "I am 20 years old, but I look 14. My track has taken off again because of the war scenes. Once the show gets over I know I have to find another show, it's all in the game. There is no need to sit and cry over the past, I am prepared for what may come." But the actor is thrilled with the fact that he is already getting offers for new shows.
