During his recent interview, Rohit Roy spoke about the differences between film and TV actors.<!-- --> He described television as a \u201cdustbin medium\u201d and said that TV actors often lack the class and conduct he associates with film actors.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"3\"\/>On Kindle Cast\u2019s YouTube channel, Rohit was asked about the \u201ccaste system\u201d in the entertainment industry and perceived divide between film and TV actors. He was also questioned about why the fame gained by television actors is often considered less valuable.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"5\"\/>Rohit said he feels TV actors often lack the \u201ccarriage\u201d he sees in film stars, especially when they appear in public.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"9\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Rohit says film actors have certain amount of class<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>He shared, &#8220;You see any public appearance of a film actor, you see the carriage with which he or she comes out, especially if they are a star. Of course, everyone puts on a front. We have to put on a front. But their front is graceful, dignified, stylish, cool\u2026 There is a certain amount of style, class.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>He then compared gatherings attended by television celebrities, Rohit said, \u201cYou see another gathering with lots of TV actors. Look at the way they behave, you will get your answer yourself.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>Rohit said that although he is a TV actor himself, he has always been mindful of how he behaves and presents himself. &#8220;You have to conduct yourself with a certain amount of grace, dignity. You can\u2019t do hoo-haa and make stupid comments because you know the paparazzi is there,&#8221; he said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Rohit comments on TV actors revealing clothes<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>The actor also compared the way TV and film personalities dress. Rohit said that revealing outfits can be seen in both industries, but feels that film stars carry them with a different sense of style. <!-- -->He said, &#8220;Look at the kind of clothing. It\u2019s not like film stars don\u2019t wear revealing clothes but there is a certain style to it. I don\u2019t know the name of this particular lady who is rampant all over social media but she hardly wears anything.<!-- --> So why are you\u2026 You are going to treat them badly.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>The actor, who was last seen in Khatron Ke Khiladi on television further said that social media appearance can generate initial buzz but they can never earn respect.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/>He said, \u201cThey are never going to respect you because what are you doing? You are not really doing anything. So I think this is one of the reasons. There are several other reasons also. I feel very few actors on television really know how to speak well to their audiences. Even their make-believe looks make-believe.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"30\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Rohit calls Television dustbin <\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>When asked if this showed a hierarchy between TV and films, Rohit said he clearly believes cinema is above television. <!-- -->\u201cCinema is cinema. It is for posterity. Television is a dustbin medium,\u201d he concluded.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"35\"\/>Speaking about how his classic show Swabhimaan, Rohit said some clips from the show still appear on social media, while many other TV shows have been forgotten over the years. &#8220;I was just lucky to be there but there are so many shows that have created history in their time, but nobody knows,\u201d he said, and quickly added, \u201cBut I still know Sholay, Deewaar. I still remember Gone with the Wind. So cinema is a natural next step every actor wants to do and why not?&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"37\"\/>Rohit said his first show was so successful that he never felt \u201cinferior\u201d to any other actor. However, he added, &#8220;But yes, we do get step-motherly treatment and it has been going on forever. When you see the better actors on television, they get the same respect. Maybe not the stardom, but respect.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"39\"\/><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/tv\/news\/hindi\/rohit-roy-says-tv-is-a-dustbin-medium-claims-tv-actors-lack-class-\/articleshow\/134077353.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rohit Roy, who started his career from Television and rose to fame with the 1990s show, Swabhimaan which aired on Doordarshan, has made some bold statements about TV actors.
