"If you know you are not shooting with a particular artiste then call them later. What¡¯s the need of making them sit? It¡¯s like you are trying to shoot others down," she said and added about the conditions on a TV set and said, "Lead actors are pampered. Their room will be neat, they will have a fridge, microwave. Where as others like us, we will have a small dingy room. They will make 3-4 people sit. The roof is falling down. No clean bathroom. Your bedsheet will be dirty. Seeing all this, I always felt so bad."
