Posted on: 23 November 2009 at 12:00amTelevision has and does borrow a lot from films. Whether it is story plots, thoughts, reference points, songs etc. TV borrows heavily from films and film stars and vice versa. TV is used as a platform by the film fraternity in order to generate work amongst stars for their promotional requirements. This is healthy and good as both are equally and greatly dependent on each other.
In the past, few film stars have given a huge TRP boost to certain channels however in the current scenario I feel that sometimes too much of importance is being given and expectations are sky high thinking they will work the magic and get the TRP's high, ARE THEY DOING THAT??? And AT WHAT COST????
A lot has been talked about recession and budgets cut in daily soaps, Does it then make any business sense to spent crores and crores on film stars when they don't deliver the same TRP's as TV soaps. It does put me off when I see a few film stars treating television as a secondary medium, and our fraternity treats them like they are the best thing that has happened to television.
With the exorbitant budgets and preferential treatment given by the people concerned, it is definitely not fair on people who actually deliver TRP's be it the TV actors, directors etc who work round the clock to achieve it. I have seen production houses going bizarre trying to accommodate the film stars time, dates, hours of shoot and the budgets and the channels accommodating that too while the TRP TV stars and team are expected to work for long hours and accommodate recession, IS IT FAIR????
In some TV awards, which is supposedly meant to be, 'BY, FOR AND OF' the TV fraternity. The focus is suddenly on a film star who walks in for 5 minutes gets his / her photo clicked, gives a half hearted speech, takes an award and goes off with a star struck people following him/her and at that moment you realize that the TV fraternity has a huge inferiority complex.
I have tremendous amount of respect and admiration for films, film stars and the media and I do respect their contribution towards TV but sometimes when our own TV fraternity treats the TV people as second class citizens it hurts.
