In a way, connecting to something we discussed a couple of days back, I will say Mukta 'used' Sriti for the show and is riding on that surfboard and may continue to do so for some time. I'd be inclined to agree that's moral corruption. [btw... been following Sriti since around the time I joined IF. Not a good sign that she isn't sharing stories on IG when she is working.]
[May delete this later since it has some personal stuff. I've been involved in a related field for some time in the past and sometimes, the perspective of Indian directors / producers have baffled me. Say, if perfection is 100% and we as a team can deliever 90%+, in walks a director and says 'quality kam kar do... itna nahi chahiye, 70% kar do'. and in our minds we go 'God... people (even our competitors) are going to see this work and we want them to feel good about what we have done.. not cringe about how art in India sucks / is mediocre'. But... he is the client / the one who has to make the choice... spend less and get a lower quality and he is happy... and I may look at the final product with crossed fingers and hope it doesn't look that bad. And what about our growth when we are delivering what we know is substandard product / when we are not working at our average, let alone max, potential? (Parallels with cast members can be drawn... and its not a good feeling. But there is no choice - the reason I could, in the past posts, say beyond a certain point the actors cant do much.)]
Can call that general moral corruption or even lack of not identifying the correct values. Jugaad / 'itna kaafi hai' reigns most of the time - and very often kills quality and growth.
There is no "in a way", dude! She is using her! Period.
