Apara Mehta speaks on tv actors working even when they are ill
Apara said that the matter is not just about Smriti, but every actor has to go through similar challenges. Sharing her experience of working even during illness, she said, “Whenever any of us fell ill, the team would come to our house, they would do a little make-up, build a wall behind and we would shoot. I know Smriti had talked about miscarriage. By the time this happened, my character in the show was already dead, but I know for a fact that he would have had to come and work as well.
Working in the tv industry requires commitment and hard work - Apara Mehta
Apara claimed that working in the tv industry requires commitment and hard work, but no single person can be blamed for it. Regarding this, she says, “Commitment is required in this industry. It's a hard life to be on TV. The entire series grows in such a way that you cannot blame any one person, actor, production house, or maker, as it is a very long series. The script and story tracks have to be decided, if something doesn't work, it has to be changed.
Apara shared that they all have worked on the sets despite going through many ups and downs in their lives. He said, “TV requires a lot of dedication from actors beyond everything else and that's how it works. During that time, there was no episode bank in any show. These days it's a little better, as sometimes there is a bank of 2-3 episodes. No matter what happens, the broadcast has to happen. We all have gone through different ups and downs in our lives, yet we shot and the telecast copy was played.
