The entertainment industry has always been a dynamic field, constantly evolving to adapt to societal changes, technological advancements, and audience preferences. However, many celebrities believe there is still room for growth and improvement. They share insights into two significant changes that could foster a more inclusive, efficient and sustainable entertainment world.
For mental health: Deekshha Sonalkar Tham
The industry needs more mental health support systems for actors and crew members. Working in a high-pressure environment often leads to burnout. Also, I’d love for the industry to prioritise original scripts over remakes or adaptations. Authentic storytelling connects better with audiences and allows for creative exploration.
Get mature: Devanggana Chauhan
The media needs to shift focus from sensationalism to thoughtful, positive storytelling. It would be great to see more emphasis on our work and contributions rather than personal controversies. Also, celebrities are expected to maintain unrealistic standards of fitness and beauty. I’d like to see the industry embrace more realistic expectations and support holistic wellness for everyone involved.
No groupism please: Nikkhil Arya
I would like to see less groupism of any kind in the entertainment industry. People should look beyond the glamour and acknowledge it as a serious business. It is one of the most challenging industries, demanding immense hard work and intent. Only someone with extraordinary passion would venture into creating meaningful content, whether it’s a sincere film or a series.
Celebrate equality: Aadesh Chaudhary
Supporting roles are as vital as lead roles. The industry should promote all contributors equally, giving credit where it’s due. I hope for a system that celebrates quality performances and creative risks, regardless of commercial success. Awards and recognition should reflect artistic value.
opportunity for all: Srikant Dwivedi
The focus is often on big-budget films or mainstream content. I’d like to see equal recognition for theatre, indie films, and web series, as they are vital parts of the industry.
