If you think television is an easy platform and an added advantage to enter Bollywood then guess again. There are quite a few budding actors from the television industry who aspired to be a part of Bollywood and have failed to make it big despite a lot of hoopla.
Probably the only actor from television to strike gold is none other than Shahrukh Khan.
Aman Verma was probably the busiest star on television when he shifted his focus towards tinsel town. Though he had acted in a couple of movies before his rise to stardom, he actually was seen in Andaaz where he played a cameo. Then came his disaster Koi Hai where he played the lead. It was heard that for one show in Pune only one person was present. Baghban, Tum and Dosti followed. After that he made a conscious shift back to television with a few more shows and the sting operation scandal.
