"It's Humiliating And Insulting": Rashami Desai On Being Categorised As A TV Actor

Rashami Desai: Rashami Desai, the popular actor known for her role in the famous tv serial Uttaran, recently talked about the film industry and the biases as she claimed that Tv and film actors are treated in different ways.

Desai while talking to Hindustan Times said that as a female actor, she feels she gets categorised for certain platforms. "They say yeh to TV actress hai, toh bura lagta hai. I feel bad that people don’t want to conveniently see the good work that I have done and the good projects that I have been a part of and the good people I have worked with. They categorise me for their convenience and comfort."

She also said that it is very difficult for TV actors to get work. "The influential people get better projects and better space. It is wrong. I don’t like it. It is humiliating and insulting. We are actors and as actors we can explore every medium, and should not be categorised."  She added that according to her very few people from television are able to make it big in Bollywood and that it makes her sad.

Rashami Desai was recently seen in the television drama Naagin 4: Bhagya Ka Zehreela Khel in which she played the role of Shalaka. In the past, after she rose to fame because of Uttaran, the actor was starred in shows Dil Se Dil Tak. She also participated in Big Boss 13 and Jhalak Dikhla Jaa, Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi and Nach Baliye.
