I'm proud of being a TV actor: Shivangi Verma

Though it’s one entertainment industry, the platforms are what make all the difference, especially if you are doing TV. There are some actors who outright refuse to acknowledge TV as their background, and at the same time, there are some who are just unbothered about this tag and believe in showcasing their talent no matter what the platform is. And Control Room actor Shivangi Verma says she is happy to be called a TV actor.

Proud of My Roots: Embracing TV Acting with Confidence

Sharing her thoughts on this perception, she said, “I'm not sure about their mindset or where they're coming from when they call me a TV actor, which I am. Personally, I'm proud of being a TV actor, and I don't see any reason to complain about it.”
 
She also pointed out that TV gives an actor instant recognition and makes them a household name. She said, “The best thing about working on television is the recognition you get. TV has a huge audience, so people often recognize you, which adds to your face value. Since I'm already a fan of TV, being a part of it feels like an achievement to me, and I plan to keep doing it.”

 
In fact, she enjoys doing it so much that she prefers it over every other medium. “I'm a big fan of daily soaps, and I prefer them over web shows. Even though working on a soap means long 12-hour shifts, I've never complained about the challenges. It's just part of the job, and if we want to be involved, we have to deal with it. There are always things that need to be managed and sorted out with the production team, but I don't find it too difficult to handle,” she ended.
