Television actor Avinash Sachdev says that TV actors need to know their characters well before they start shooting.

Most actors are known to attend workshops before they start shooting for their films. Television actor Avinash Sachdev says that there should be a similar provision for TV actors as well.

According to him, due to hectic schedules, actors on the small screen hardly get time to do any research for their roles.

Television actor Avinash Sachdev says that TV actors need to know their characters well before they start shooting.

“It’s not how it works in a film, where actors have so much time to attend workshops to get into the skin of their characters. There are no Sundays or holidays in our schedules, and therefore, there is never any time for these workshops. I feel that this is something that we must work on including in the TV space,” he says.

While Avinash appreciates the work film actors do, he doesn’t want to join films. “I don’t want to be a part of Bollywood because I don’t want to let go of my privacy. I have seen that happens a lot, especially with film actors,” he says, adding, “I want to try different roles on the small screen itself. I always make it a point to pick up something different every time. I want to now take up a negative role, as I feel as a villain, I will get to act more,” he says.
