Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke ended on October 17. The show had a huge fan following and was the most loved on television. However, due to low TRPs the show went off-air. But fans were clearly not happy with this decision and took to social media to protest so that Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke gets an extension. Shaheer Sheikh and Rhea Sharma were paired for the first time on television. They both were brilliant as Abir and Mishti in the show. Kaveri Priyam and Avinash Mishra played the parallel leads in the show. Avinash Mishra had replaced Ritvik Arora as Kunal Rajvansh. However, Avinash Mishra won hearts even with his small stint in the show. Currently, he is seen playing the role of a mentally challenged man in Durga. The actor recently in an interview with ETimes, he said that he does not like social media and is on those sites only because of societal pressure.
Avinash Mishra said, “I don’t enjoy being on social media. In fact, if I get a special power then I would remove all the social media platforms from all over the world. I am on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook just because of the ‘Samajh ka’ pressure. Otherwise, I would not join any social platform. I am more of a spiritual and a book person. I like to travel and meet people personally rather than spending time on social media. I like to be in nature’s lap and feeling it. I believe in these things more but I know in today’s generation, my contemporaries are more active on social media.” He was also asked about actors getting work because of their social media followers. Avinash shared, “The sad part is people get cast because of the numbers of social media followers they enjoy. I don’t take that pressure of having a certain number on social media but I do feel sad about the system how it works. I feel you are pushing the industry into the wrong hands. We need to understand the difference between actors and social media influencers. I don’t get this logic that if you have an ex number of followers you get cast for a show, web series. Getting cast for a music video, I still understand but for acting why I don’t understand this logic. I feel if someone big banner is casting a celebrity for an acting part just because of his social media following, it is really sad. This whole year we spoke about nepotism but ideally I feel this topic should have been discussed. I wish people would come up with a similar term for this too, like nepotism because I know so many good theatre actors get sidelined because they don’t have social media followers. They are willing to work but they are not getting work because they are not active on social media.”
“I don’t feel like clicking my pictures for social media all the time or being dressed for it every time. I feel bad when people say ‘oh Avinash is a very stylish actor’. I don’t want to be called a stylish actor, I want to be known as a good actor. There are times when I want to wear a simple shirt and a trouser that’s it. I will feel great if they call me a better actor and not a stylish actor. It will be a huge reward and award for me, “he added. The Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke actor also spoke about nepotism in television industry. He said, “I don’t see nepotism at all in the TV industry because everyone is an outsider here. People belong to different cities, backgrounds and they have come here for work. Everyone is getting work. I feel the TV industry gives you a lot of work. Because not everyone is able to crack or make it into movies. If you are hardworking and talented television helps you to make your mark in the Showbiz industry. I feel people find lots of work in this industry.”
