Sudhanshu Pandey currently seen in Anupamaa as Vanraj Shah, has started a campaign for TV actors to be considered for National awards. He tells mid-day.com all about his plan.
"I joined the world of daily soaps with Anupamaa, I had never experienced this life before that. As luck would have it, the pandemic also started which was the first in our life time and parents’ life time as well. When I started shooting, within seven days there was a lockdown. We were all at home for three and half months but the TV industry was still trying to figure a way to start functioning. It is where daily entertainment comes from. We have a lot of daily wagers who work every day to make their living. It has employed so many people. After three and half months, my producer Rajan Shahi took all precautions and there were very few people allowed on set. Only actors could not be masked up. Because we had to be in front of the camera, we were obviously high risk and it was still the first wave. If not the pandemic, sitting at home would kill daily wagers so they were all very happy," says Sudhanshu Pandey.
