I want to start off by requesting all to keep this thread argument and bashing free. I came across a recent interview of SI and i wanted to share my thoughts on it esp. since i found it very relevant to the IPK ending fiasco.

"Sanaya, feels that if there is one change that the industry really needs is the change in the working schedule of the actors. "It is really hectic and I really want that we should also have fixed hours of working, and at least a day off per week. Doing one daily soap is a hectic thing and it takes all your time and energy," she says and adds that one thing that she has learnt in the last few years is to be calm. "I am a punctual person and if I do a certain thing on time, I will expect the same from. But in this industry things don't work this way. So I have learnt that there is no point screaming, things can be better sorted out by being calm and patient," she concludes."
I am really glad that Sanaya brought up this point; she is absolutely right and this is the second or third time she has mentioned it recently. Not to mention a number of other TV celebrities including Gul Khan have also spoken of the long working hours and hectic schedules.
Just wanted to point this out to the fans who called Barun lazy, unprofessional and always cribbing about long hours. To be he was a visionary who was the first to openly talk about the hectic schedules, better time management and the need for seasons in Indian TV. I'm glad to see many more are coming out to share their views on the same👍🏼
