Suman Indori actor Ashnoor Kaur on eye surgery: No eye make-up for a month
Speaking about the show going off air in just seven months, Ashnoor adds, 'In the current times, even shows featuring big names fail. Ours still stood the test of time and managed to have an audience. Even in the 6.30pm slot, it earned good views and was at the top in its category, in today's time what else an actor ask for?'
Ashnoor admits she was taken aback when she learnt about the show going off air in April. 'I was disheartened. In fact, the entire team was and it happened all of a sudden. When you are not prepared in your head, you tend to get overwhelmed,' says the actor, who took on the show after a three-year hiatus from the small screen.
The actor also clarifies that she never played a mother in the show. "I was very clear from the beginning, and when I met the team, I stated that I could play a character who is married but not a mother on screen, as I am just too young for the role. So, when the show took a leap, a child's character was introduced, but I was playing a guardian to him throughout."
For now, Ashnoor is focusing on her health and recovery after the eye surgery. 'It was a long time pending, and now I'm seeing everything in HD (laughs)! I was nine when I got power glasses, and the number kept increasing by the year. My doctor has suggested to avoid swimming, eye make-up and visiting dusty places for a month.'

Anita Hassanandani on staying relevant: Sometimes you have to bend a little
Anita Hassanandani Having completed 25 years in the entertainment industry, Anita Hassanandani believes television has not seen any substantial transformation in its content. The actress, who was last seen in Suman Indori and will next appear in the reality show Chhoriyan Chali Gaon, feels the medium continues to rely on outdated tropes. In a chat with Mumbai Mirror, Anita shares, 'Honestly, I haven't seen much of a change. Television, as a format, still feels regressive. The upside is that shows no longer run endlessly. Within six months, you are in and out of a project, which is actually a positive for an actor. The downside is that these shows are not performing well anymore, which is unfortunate. Still, I choose to look at it positively. If I manage to do something decent for six months and then move on, that is still a win. ' Despite changes in the landscape, she has stayed relevant, something many of her contemporaries have struggled with. Ask her how she has managed to sustain her career, and she reflects, 'You have to make the most of what comes your way. Sometimes, you have to bend a little, even if the creative satisfaction is only 80 percent or the money is not ideal. After COVID, the dynamics of the industry have changed, and a bit of compromise is necessary to stay busy.

I took a break when Aaravv was born, and while I truly enjoy being at home with him, I also feel the need to do something for myself. Working makes me happy, and that happiness makes me a better mother and a better person at home. It is all about finding balance, adjusting when needed, and choosing projects that feel right.' 'I do not think the audience is ready for that change yet' On how she deals with being part of shows that often return to conventional storytelling despite initially promising to be different, Anita explains, 'When a show begins, it might appear fresh and progressive. But eventually, it ends up following the same formula. As actors, we join hoping to be part of something that can shift the narrative, but I do not think the audience is ready for that change yet. They keep gravitating back to familiar storylines. Today, viewers, especially in urban India, have access to multiple platforms, and with web series wrapping up in eight or ten episodes, TV has lost some of its appeal.'
