Talking about the financial stability in the TV industry, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’s Sunayana Fozdar told Hindustan Times, “I feel that we are talking about the economic crisis now in terms of the TV industry in the pandemic. But that has been a problem for a very long time in the TV industry, way before the pandemic hit us. Hamesha budget nahi hote the, payment ka problem, yeh pehle se hi raha hai.”
Agreeing that the situation has only worsened in the last two years, Sunayana Fozdar added, “Now with so many actors in the market and lesser number of shows since a lot of shows have gone off air, it is difficult.”
Adding that she values having a job during these trying times, Sunayana Fozdar said, “There have been so many layoffs and shows going off-air, every actor has had the time to reflect and value their job so much more than before. We took a lot of things for granted.”
