Several celebrities in the recent past have opened up about poor working conditions in the television industry and the toxicity that follows. Others have been vocal about not paying dues. A recent celebrity who has spoken is Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 fame Aditi Sharma. In a new interview, he highlights the abuse faced not only by the actors, but also by the countless extras and crew members who work tirelessly.
Aditi Sharma opens up
“The work is delivered correctly, but when it’s time to pay, they get blocked, ignored or left with unread messages. Their chats are archived and remain in ignorance. They are not asking for charity – they are asking for their rightfully earned money. We shoot almost 24 hours straight and it’s not just for the actors.

The entire crew is involved in every shot and works tirelessly to keep the production running smoothly. With such a commitment, it’s only fair that they expect their payments to be made on time. When it comes time to pay, all they hear are excuses that will put them in a difficult financial situation.

“We deserve fair wages, safe working conditions and respect. The crew play a vital role in bringing every project to life and their hard work should be recognized. I want everyone in this industry to stand together and fight for fairness at work. At a time when when we treat each other honestly and with respect,” adds Aditi.
