Madalsa Sharma: There is a lot of violent and brutal content on OTT



Actress Madalsa Sharma says that OTT, as a platform, has some of the most violent and brutal content today. She adds that as a viewer, she doesn’t care much for such content, but admits that it’s is a trend now to make such shows. 
“There is a lot of content that shows violence and brutality on OTT. I personally don't like to watch such content. To some viewers, it is a source of stimulation. Not for me. I love adventure, romance, action thrillers etc. I find brutality morbid,” she says.

She adds, “Showcasing violence, crime etc is a trend that comes and goes. If today it is crime, maybe tomorrow it will be comedy or romance. There is a constant tribulation in the minds of people due to various reasons, personal, social, political and economic. We all want to escape, we choose our get aways as per our taste and choices. Kashmir files and Kerala Story are different. They are more educational films. It is necessary to open the eyes of the societies to certain social issues. But whether the producer's intention was the same is a question.”

The Monday episode of Nilanjana Purkayasstha and Herumb Khot's "Chikoo Ki Mummy Durr Kei" saw Chikoo asking Sameer to teach her how to play a piano. She is wondering why he is not calling her beta or Archie, and asks him what her name is, but Pushpa comes there and tells her that she is Archie Khetan.  Just then Nupur knocks on their door. She shows Sameer a photograph of Chikoo and asks him if he has seen her. Sameer says no and asks her who she is. She tells him that the girl in the picture is just like her daughter.

Sonali Jaffar on Tujhse Hai Raabta coming to an end: It was a journey that I am glad we all were a part of

Reem Shaikh and Sehban Azmi starrer Tujhse Hai Raabta goes off air. Actors, crew and the producers of the show Sonali Jaffar and Amir Jaffar bid an emotional adieu to the show that did well for the last three years.   “My take away from Tujhse Hai Raabta is that no matter how small a budget you have, no matter whether you are working with relatively newer people, your story will go a long way provided it’s told from the heart. And it’s the performances, presentation and relatable factor that do wonders. Raabta survived because it held on to all these things till the very end,” says producer and writer Sonali Jaffar.   Sharing memories of making the show, she reveals an incident about Arzan, the child artist who plays the role of Pilu. “Arzan spoke his first word and also took his first step on the set. There was like a crèche for him on the set and everyone was always pampering him. Watching Arzan grow up is an unforgettable memory for all ...

Till now, all their projects, Viru ki Paathshala for Facebook-IPL, Echoes (Short Film) etc, in different formats and mediums have done well. The producer and storyteller shares about his journey and experiences so far, and from where it all started.   “The saying, ‘Main akela hi chala tha janib-e-manzil magar, log saath aate gaye aur kaarwan banta gaya’ aptly suits my life and journey so far. I came to Bombay in 1993. After finishing my studies, I started working in different fields— from advertising to Marketing to television. My first work after college was with Provogue as a marketing executive, then I joined Spykar jeans and after that television happened. I worked for Doordarshan for a show that was produced by Mr. Subhash Ghai’s ‘Mukta Arts’ and a friend. Then I did films, my last one being "Humdum," under Mr. Kushan Nandy’s direction,” he says.   In...
