Amitabh Bachchan plays Yudhisthir Skarwar, a highly competitive businessman on the show
Mumbai:
Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is set to make his fiction TV show debut with Yudh, that starts airing later this month on Sony Entertainment Television. With the rising number of channels and shows, he wonders if his effort will be appreciated.
When he first forayed on the small screen with Kaun Banega Crorepati, it marked a revolution for the medium. And after decades of working in the entertainment industry, he still wonders if he will be able to strike a chord with TV viewers.(Also Read: Big B juggling two TV shows)
"As you go through the 800-odd TV channels in the country, you often wonder whether with the amount of content that keeps floating around, your own effort would ever be seen or even appreciated," he posted on his official blog srbachchan.tumblr.com on June 9.
"Television has become three times more remunerative than films here in the country. The turnovers say so, as do many of the viewers," the actor added.
While many faces from the TV world are trying to find space in films, Big B says he is "doing exactly the opposite and hoping and wishing that efforts made to execute something different, shall be acknowledged".
He believes that it is a "tough world and only the tough survive".
Directed by Anurag Kashyap, the show also features Sarika and Kay Kay Menon.
