Television is a National Prostitute: Vivek Agnihotri
Hate Story director Vivek Agnihotri is disappointed with the world of television. Vivek began his career with advertising and television before moving on to Bollywood. He is well known for his hit TV shows like ‘Saturday Suspense’, ‘Rishtey’, ‘Gubbarey’ and ‘X Zone’.
When asked if he would consider returning to TV in the future he remarked” Television content has changed today and television is a national prostitute, freely used and abused by all”.
Further calling it a whore, he blamed TV channels for treating the medium like a cartoon channel and criticized Hindi General Entertainment Channels for exploiting people’s minds and putting up anything in the name of content.
He further stated “No one in television is treated well. You spend your entire youth working and your hard work goes unnoticed. It’s inglorious. Why waste time?”
Does the TV fraternity share Vivek’s sentiments? Is anyone listening?
