TV actors often speak about pulling shifts that can stretch from 18 to 20 hours, working while ill, getting food that is inedible, dirty washrooms and often going without breaks for long durations. There’s a severe lack of professionalism in the Indian TV industry, and if an actor insists on professionalism, they’re labeled as problematic by producers. In 2023, Jennifer Mistry also raised the issue of dirty toilets for women on the Taarak Mehta sets. So what are TV producers doing when it comes to safety issues for actresses? Unfortunately, I’ve noticed a lack of adequate precautions on many TV sets.
