Shravan Reddy, popular as Aryan in the television show Krishnadasi, recently went full Monty for a web series called Karma. TV ratings make it difficult for artists or production houses to attempt something new.”— inputs from Sameena Razzaq and Julie Samend-ofTags: web series, web series maaya, sonarika bhadoria, web series karma. “I like that my fans have been encouraging my roles and want to see me doing something different. While I haven’t faced any criticism, I have seen my peers face backlash because of their roles on the web.  
Instead, he’s going ahead with his experiments on the web. I am not bothered about the onscreen image. Because of this, content takes a beating.Stills from web series TanhaiyaanBarun Sobti concurs.Stills from web series MaayaIndian television soaps are known to propagate the ‘ideal bahu/beta’ image. But web allows you to be real. Unfortunately TV is all about TRPs.  Breaking away from his image on the telly, he plays a Casanova in the web show Tanhaiyaan. If I think it’s not, I’ll talk about it with the director.But it will be a long way before TV warms up to the idea, says Kritika Kamra, who believes that the industry is a bit of a stickler for ‘safe content’. We as Indians scrutinise bold content more when Indians do it and not so much when people in the West do it.
“I had absolutely no apprehensions about playing such a role, mostly because the script was an interesting one.Says the actor, “My director explained to me the character’s state of mind and the decisions he would make. Also, the film is targeted for the international audience, which is what made me agree to do such a risque scene. Kritika recently shot for a short film on the web called White Shirt. I also feel that calling it ‘sexually explicit’ too is wrong. As of now, I have got positive feedback. I want to experiment with the web before the whole burden of ratings come into the picture,” says the actor who is currently seen in Prem Ya Paheli — Chandrakanta.”As for those who haven’t taken the plunge yet, there’s always a chance.”  Another actor who stepped out of her comfort zone and into a bolder image, is Shama Sikander. Your acting and dialogue delivery is expected to be a certain way — larger than life, exaggerated.  
Even when there have been attempts to make a change, the experiment has failed. The actor who became a household name with Iss Pyaar ko Main Kya Naam Doon, isn’t waiting for TV to change its filter. Remember how Sonarika Bhadoria, who played Parvati in Devon ka Dev Mahadev, was trolled when her bikini pictures made it to the Internet? More and more actors China mold insert core manufacturers however, are breaking away from the mould anyway.”The reason that the telly and the web offer such varied content is, quite naturally, due to the different kinds of audiences that they cater to. The director made me portray the mindset of my character, which led me to certain actions in the story and going nude was one of it. “It depends on the actors, why they decide to do what they do. Nakuul Mehta, primetime’s blue-eyed boy, whose show I Don’t watch TV for Arre, is far cry from his television shows, says, “As actors on television, we are mostly catering to mothers and grandparents. As far as the relevance of me going full Monty is concerned, the narrative demanded it.  
The formula has been a tried and tested one, creating much ripple every time the narrative deviates to incorporate a ‘bolder’ idea — on or off screen. I would surely be up for it if it’s needed. While they do maintain a ‘clean’ image on the telly, they aren’t particularly shy of changing their persona for the web.Television actors who play ‘sanskari’ characters for the family audiences, are baring it all for the web. Otherwise seen as a strong female lead on telly, the actor was part of a sexually bold web series Maaya, which explored the topic of BDSM. Karan Wahi for instance, is up for breaking away from a goody-two-shoes image too. If I were to take fans into consideration, I would never be able to experiment.
