Q. You returned to TV after a decade. How does that feel?
A. It felt nice and some part of me had always missed it. When I came back, I realised what I had been missing. I didn’t do television because they have run-of-the-mill shows that continually churn out matter without second thoughts. But 'Meri Awaaz Hi Pehchaan Hai' is different. After doing weekly shows, I found a story which had a beginning and an end. It has 130-odd episodes. Otherwise, soaps just go on and on depending on what the audience likes, what the channel demands and how TRPs go. I have produced two shows, so I know.
