Let us be realistic in our expectations
1) Entertainment industry is still in the middle of a pandemic, even RS said that only 30% of industry people are employed right now. Which means most actors are unemployed right now. We can see a huge list of well known popular actors and actresses are not doing any shows as of now. When situation is normalized and industry recovers from Covid losses then hopefully PHs will again start costly, ambitious projects with popular actors. Right now they will hire actors who are not so well known as they would charge less. It’s all about the money!
2) Even in normal times, established actresses have to wait for a good role to come along. So many popular actresses are sitting at home for two or more years. Popular actors get roles more quickly and they’re paired with newcomers to save money as mostly female viewers are guaranteed to follow the male star’s shows. So it’s ridiculous when some people compare male stars getting more roles than their female costars. It’s just the way entertainment industry works in both Bollywood and ITV. It’s male oriented and favors male stars.
So we have to wait for the economic situation to improve before we can expect to see Rhea back onscreen. She would want to wait for a good role after Mishti and that’s not easy to get in current situation.
Even experienced big name ML r also missing from itv. What you said about dat happened alot in late 2000's but situation kind of change now. Now production r going for new comer or unknown faces both for ML n FL. To save cost.
