Before everyone throws their chappals at me..
This is for the technical team and not actors... Okay for actors too... 😊
I happened to witness a shoot for an OTT show recently. Hadn't seen one before so this was my firsthand experience.
It was a simple shot of walking up and down an escalator in a mall. Hardly a 5 second shot.
They took almost an hour to set up and shoot it from 3 different angles... 6 takes till I got bored and left from there. Actors were veterans.
Now coming to Ghum, they seem to have exhausted their episode bank with Mahaepisode. The BTS we get is telecasted just a day or two later.
Which means everyone including the actors, directors and most importantly the technical team must be slogging hard to put up an episode.
Kudos to them. Whatever the story is right now, it has not faltered so much. It is still good to watch. The overall experience not the content to be precise.
Their poor editor must be working the nights too.
Hence an appreciation post. I know many would not agree, but I hope they take a mini break (probably 3-4 days) in the advance telecast and create their bank again.
Its unfair and wrong on the part of PH to be making everyone work so hard and long hours.
P.S. TV industry works this way is what I understand... still .. they all deserve a break.
Happy Holi everyone.
