The
COVID-19
pandemic
has
affected
the
livelihood
of
many
people.
Speaking
about
the
entertainment
industry,
many
artists
have
been
forced
to
sit
at
home
due
to
lack
of
work
and
are
facing
tough
times.
One
amongst
them
is
actor
Resham
Arora.
He
is
known
for
his
brief
appearance
in
Amitabh
Bachchan's
1990
film
Agneepath
in
which
he
had
essayed
the
role
of
a
doctor
who
treats
Mithum
Chakraborty's
character
Krishnan
Iyer
M.A.
In
a
chat
with
ETimes,
Resham
opened
up
on
his
financial
struggle,
especially
after
the
pandemic
and
the
lockdown.
He
told
the
tabloid,
"There
is
absolutely
no
work
for
me.
This
has
been
the
state
ever
since
the
lockdown
began.
While
people
say
''cheezein
khul
rahi
hai
(things
are
opening
up
now)',
I
still
don't
see
sufficient
work
opportunities
available."
Resham
told
the
tabloid,
"I
fell
off
a
train
a
couple
of
years
ago,
and
then
was
bitten
in
the
leg
by
some
strange
insect
at
a
shoot
for
Ashwini
Dheer's
show
Chidiya
Ghar,
which
hindered
my
movement
for
some
time.
Being
in
a
precarious
condition,
tragedy
further
struck
me
when
my
wife's
eyesight
started
deteriorating;
she
contracted
acute
glaucoma."
He
further
revealed
that
he
is
looking
for
work
and
that
film
body
CINTAA
(Cine
And
TV
Artistes
Association)
too
has
helped
him.
"I
am
seriously
in
need
of
work.
CINTAA
has
helped
me
a
bit
but
that's
definitely
not
enough
to
keep
us
in
good
condition.
I
am
broke.
I
need
financial
aid,"
ETimes
quoted
the
actor
as
saying.
Besides
Agneepath,
Resham
had
also
starred
in
Amitabh
Bachchan's
1992
film
Khuda
Gawah
in
which
he
had
essayed
the
role
of
a
jailor.
