I am an actress. My first film was a Telugu film, my second film was Bollywood, and third was Indo-Chinese.
I won't name names, but sometimes a TV set can be a shame-and-fear obstacle course for an actress.
We were a Doordarshan household... with a curfew. So after lights out at 10 P.M., we could barely keep up with the latest films of the time. So even thinking about becoming an actress was unfathomable.
Viola Davis, she does have a lot of TV acting jobs, and she's also a very, very accomplished stage actress.
