Yeah I wonder about likes of Kushal, Guru Dutt, Nafisa, Tunisha, Kulraj etc who committed suicide. How they handled mental health issues and faced pressure to look good and act normal despite mental trauma or what other pressure they might have faced...
Or how Siddharth probably died due to excessive exertion during workouts and it took a toll on his heart.
Or how many TV actors have actually collapsed on sets or had heart attack due to lack of hygienic food, crazy shooting hours, lack of ventilation.
Or how KK also died of heart attack during concert and there was no good ventilation there.
I remember how Smriti Irani shared she continued to shoot for saas serial even in pregnancy and suffered miscarriage on set and she was bleeding on set and returned to shooting next day despite miscarriage. She also resumed shooting soon after deliveries of her babies too and was not given maternity leave because serial was no.1 and TRPs would decline if she was not seen in episodes.
I have heard Amitabh was also under lot of pressure to resume shooting after Coolie accident and many big films were pending. He worked. But later took break as it took a toll on his health.
He still works despite health issues and it is said he takes lot of energy drinks like Red Bull to feel less tired and less sleepy.
Media glorifies it as dedication and passion but I think it is unfair to tax one's body and mind beyond a limit.
Aftab was a child model earlier and it is said he vomitted after he had to eat too many chocolates for an ad and director was making him do lot of retakes. He was scolded a lot for not giving right expression and and scolded more for puking after eating too many chocolates. Then I realised how unfair it is for child artistes also.
yes there are alot of tv actors , films actors commited sucide , i was affected more by tunisha because being so young, she just came out of teen last year, but yeah she was in need of care and love as she was single child , her father passed when she was a kid , her freind told that tunisha wanted love care and family mean settle down with someone ,and she did this to her in years when a bright future was ahead just because of one wrong partner who played with the emotion ..time could have healed it but.......,
there has to be proper counsiling for all people actor ,singers or normal peoples everyone needs it., i got to know eijaz khan tv actor who did kavyaanjali in 2005 , he had mental health issues and he consulted doctor he left doing tv shows since then
