Television star Rashami Desai recently slammed the viral ad, starring Ranveer Singh and adult star Johnny Sins.

I don't want any complications happening. My words are very clear.”
'People Always Make A Mockery Of Small Screen': Rashami Desai
She further added, "In television, we've never shown such things. People always make a mockery of the small screen, but they come to TV when they need to promote (films). TV has the biggest reach, but it is also demeaned the most. There's no respectful balance. I felt bad because I've been working here."
Desai said this a few days after she wrote on her IG Story, “I've started my work from a regional film industry. And then I started working in television industry. Ppl call it a small screen. Where normal people watch news, cricket, all #Bollywood film also and much more. After watching this reel, which is highly unexpected, I felt its a humiliation to all the TV industry and people who work in television. Coz we are always made feel small and treated like 1. Actors really wanna work on big screen too.”
“This is exactly how we get treated. Everyone is working hard. But I am sorry TV show pe yeh sab nahi dikhate. This all happens on big screen. And nothing wrong in showing some reality but this a reality check for all the TV industry coz I feel its a slap. Maybe I am overreacting but we show culture and love to our audience. And I'm hurt coz I have had a respectful journey in the TV industry. Hope you all will understand the emotion. #msorryfornotbeingsorry,” she concluded.
