BHARTI SINGH OPENS UP ABOUT UNHEALTHY WORK ENVIRONMENT IN TV INDUSTRY; SAYS 'I'VE SEEN GIRLS WORKING WITH DRIPS ON DAILY SOAPS'
Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa discussed their TV work experiences on their podcast. In their latest podcast episode, Bharti Singh and Harsh Limbachiyaa had guests Manoj Bajpayee and Prachi Desai. During the conversation, Bharti and Harsh shared their challenges of working long hours on TV sets. Bharti even mentioned witnessing female actors shooting scenes while hooked up to IV drips due to non - stop shooting schedules.
Harsh recalled how actors used to spend over 15 hours on set with minimal sleep. He noted instances of directors and crew members facing health issues due to sleep deprivation. He said, "I've seen directors and creatives suffer heart attacks and health issues due to sleep deprivation. People would drink tea, smoke, eat only set food, and suffer from acidity, but wouldn't be able to control it."
Bharti added, "I've even seen girls working with drips on daily soaps. They were not allowed to go home due to telecast issue." Harsh also highlighted the directors' obsession with capturing the perfect shot, regardless of the actors' well-being. Prachi contributed to the discussion by revealing her coping mechanism, mentioning she relied on copious amounts of coffee to endure the lengthy working schedules.
Currently, Bharti and Haarsh are hosting two different reality shows on the small screen. While Bharti is hosting Dance Deewane season 3 judged by Madhuri Dixit and Suneil Shetty, Haarsh is seen hosting Superstar Singer which has Neha Kakkar as the judge.
Bharti recently invited Prachi Desai and Manoj Bajpayee for a podcast.
