Sandiip Sikcand’s post
After the episode was aired on TV, Sandiip took to his Instagram handle to share a note which did not take any names but read, “All these TV actors who are suddenly talking about their LOVE for TV and their profession… I wonder where does that love go when they dole out 3 & 4 hours (of the agreed 12 hours) for a shoot, when they demand script changes, when they have ridiculous demands on dialogues and at the end of it, if they sign a film or an event or even an ad, the TV commitment goes straight out of the window.” He went on to say, “So my request is to kindly SHUT UP! There are just very few actors who genuinely respect & acknowledge TV & they never have to shout and make a scene about it… #theloudestvoiceisnotalwaystrue.”

Hina Khan takes a dig at Sandiip Sikcand
Bashing Sandiip, Hina posed some hard-hitting questions taking TV fraternity and Ankita Lokhande’s side. She penned, “5 Questions No 1. We have seen Pavitra Rishta’s successfull run for many many years, when did pavitra rishta’s telecast repeat because of ANKITA?
No 2. In a factory like creative arrangement how many years would u survive as a lead?
No 3. Can u with all sincerety post the same questions to film stars who work on film to film, repeat film to film and still only work according to thr whims and fancies which i believe they have earned over the years just like actors in television?
No 4. How long would you seek two minute fame at the expense of the people from your own friterty, who by all means are standing up for our friternity?
No 5. Who made you the representative and or the president or the mouthpiece of the entire television industry?

She further said how actors relentlessly work despite tough circumstances and wrote, “On an Indian television set which has in most cases episodes to telecast minimum 5 and maximum 7 days a week, everyone has a backup in case of an illness or unforeseen circumstances, everyone that is, except the Actor. Once cast, the Actor is indispensable and must make it to the set, come what may until you replace them or kill them off. The relentless cycle of working 10-12 hours daily, day and night, on the same project year after year as an Actor is something you haven’t experienced firsthand, and probably, never will. Actors from Indian Television faint, go through depression, fall ill yet have given closes from the Hospital and sometimes while they’re just out of a surgery or have lost their dear ones or when they’re in a cast of plaster and are immobile. But they show up.. Everyone wants to grow and work efficiently over quantitative expectations just like you, because that Sir is Exploitation! So please get down of your high horse and yes don’t forget to Kindly Shut Up! This 2 minute fame shall be enough for you this year.. cheers”

On a concluding note, she asserted how TV actors are belittled. “Disagreements and differences, both creatively and logistically, are inevitable among people on sets. ..but it’s not about who’s right or wrong, sometimes it can b an actor and sometimes others.. it’s always a two way street. Every individual, whether a Creative, Producer, Actor, Technician or Crew member, deserves due respect. However, biases solely against the Actor, as an attempt to belittle them, must be called out and discouraged. This becomes even more critical when it is evidently an attempt to garner cheap publicity and fame. It’s important and necessary to recognize when our actions fall beneath our dignity”, added Hina.

Sandiip Sikcand has hit back at Hina and wrote, “Thank you for extending my minute fame to 4 minutes – much appreciated. A lot of my friends & followers want me to respond but I really dont bark back at people who bark at me – just not my style. As a viewer, I will continue with my opinions and people with no jobs can find new jobs by responding to them. As they say, water off the ducks back.”
