"A well-chiselled body is not enough to get a break in Bollywood," says actor Shashank Vyas. In fact, he adds that his drool-worthy abs have nothing to do with the fact that he wants to act in films. "I didn't develop my six pack abs to try my luck in Bollywood. I had a year when I was free and so I dedicated myself to working out. Apart from that, there's no connection between six-pack abs and getting a role in a film, it's all on your acting skills. It's all about how you perform and give your 100 per cent," he says.
While films are important to him, the actor says that they are not his primary focus. "The amount of energy I put in playing a character on television will be the same energy that I will put in a Bollywood role. It's not that I am saving some energy or craft for the 75 mm screen. I don't want to. I don't have the time to stress on what medium it is, I don't care if it's a web series, television, or films. Whatever I am today is because of television, people know me because of my shows and my craft and people talk to me because I am a television actor, it's my bread and butter. I respect television and frankly, TV is one medium which every Bollywood actor tends to associate themselves with be it film promotion, participating in a reality show, becoming a judge in reality show or ads on TV so TV can't be ignored forget being looked down upon. Having said that, I do want to do films especially because a wide variety of content is being made and there is scope for TV actors. TV is one medium which enables you to work and deliver quality under pressure."
