Actress Sonarika Bhadoria, who was last seen in the show Ishq Mein Marjawan, has been missing from the small screen for a while now. The actress who is all set for the release of her upcoming movie talked about it during a recent interview with BT and shared, “I had shot for a film before the pandemic. The film is completely ready for theatrical release. The movie’s release is getting postponed because of the pandemic as while during the first and second wave of the pandemic multiplexes were closed, the occupancy during the third wave wasn’t that much.”
She added, “The work front has been a little slow for the past few months. But I am sure this year is going to be really rocking as I am doing a web show. On television, there were a couple of shows that I was considering and I was finalized for, but eventually, I didn’t do them. It’s been 10 years that I have been doing TV and whatever I am today is because of the medium. But ab kuch aur karne ka mann tha. I have been gravitating to the OTT platform for the longest time and the kind of content OTT is offering is pretty good and experimental. It is my deliberate attempt to stay away from TV for some time. Plus, I have also been doing music videos.”
Talking about her conflicts with the makers of the show Dastaan-E-Mohabbat: Salim Anarkali for not paying her dues, Sonarika shared, “It’s been three years and I have still not been paid my dues. Apart from me, the dues of several other actors and technicians from the same show are pending. It was my worst time. Firstly, the first wave of COVID-19 had hit us, and then there was this issue of non-payment. We actors have this life of daily digging the well to drink water. I wish I get paid soon. Everything from my end in terms of legal formalities and paperwork is done,” she concludes.
