Despite the dip in the Coronavirus cases, the fight for survival continues for the entertainment industry. But that comes with a sense of disparity, which actor Amit Sadh calls out while slamming owners of cinema halls.

“The pandemic has affected the industry [adversely]. It doesn’t affect me that much, but it does affect the hair and makeup community, and the workforce of cinema,” Sadh notes, adding, “Actors ko kuch nahin hoga itna, but unko hoga jo workforce hain, the whole crew, assistant director, lightmen, and spot boys. Aur idhar cinema hall wale log bol rahe sadak pe aa rahe hain.”

With the pandemic disrupting theatrical business and releases, there have been growing concerns about the business of cinemas. The Breathe and Jeet Ki Zid actor, however, feels it is unfair on the part of cinema owners to bellyache about survival. “Arrey cinema halls ne itne saal se kamaya bhi toh hai! I don’t understand people who have two cars and a home complaining about survival. They should keep quiet right now,” he rues.

The 42-year-old adds that one should look at the suffering of people beyond one sector. “The workforce all over India is stuck. I know so many people who don’t have jobs,” points out the actor, who’s currently in Los Angeles (US), recovering from his knee surgery.

In April, Sadh announced that he’s taking a break from social media and slammed people for flaunting their privileges when the country was having its worst moment.
