Naagin 5 Actor Sharad Malhotra On Taking Pay Cut Due To COVID-19: It's Time To Uplift Each Other
The television industry has incurred huge financial losses due to coronavirus pandemic. A number of TV shows had to shut shop as broadcasters and producers tried staying afloat. But after almost four months, all TV shoots resumed after receiving a nod from the government with a bunch of guidelines and directives in place.
Actor Sharad Malhotra who recently made his grand return to TV in Ekta Kapoor’s supernatural show Naagin 5 alongside Surbhi Chandna and Mohit Sehgal shared his thoughts on actors and technicians taking pay cuts to support the makers and uplift one another amid the ongoing COVID-19 crisis.
Sharad
told
the
Times
of
India,
"I
am
someone
who
likes
to
speak
his
mind.
A
lot
of
time
it
creates
controversy,
but
I
won't
shy
away
from
commenting
on
this
important
topic.
I
feel
it
is
a
very
testing
time
for
everyone.
Be
it
a
producer,
channel,
actor
or
any
technicians,
it
is
very
difficult
for
everyone.
We
all
have
to
agree
and
come
to
a
common
point
if
the
producer
is
facing
any
kind
of
issues
as
actors
and
technicians
we
need
to
understand.
He went on to add, "I have always said that if there's anything that I can do to help, my producer I will. Because at the moment everybody like I said, we need to help each other. It's a period when we have to help each other. So, yes I've done that. I have reworked on my price and It's not just me everybody, even the technicians, everyone has come together as a family. We have stuck together and there for each other."
