Erica Fernandes is one of the most popular TV actresses in the industry. She gained popularity with serials like Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi and Prerna in Kasautii Zindagii Kay. Recently, Erica has been in the news not for acting but for different reasons. The popular television star, Erica Fernandes, took a break from acting to live with her family in Dubai. Erica participated in a recent podcast interview where she shared concerning revelations about the entertainment world.
Fernandes revealed the dark sides of Bollywood and the television industry while discussing them openly with the interviewer. She displayed remarkable bravery by speaking about the casting couch that most celebrities avoid talking about in public, like s*xual coercion, abuse, and hierarchies that hurt aspiring actors.
Erica Fernandes Talked About The Casting Couch
According to the podcast, Fernandes disclosed an industry system operating outside the public view. Social advancement in the industry demands that aspiring actors perform compromising sexual favors. Norms regarding these practices exist within specific groups to such an extent that ability alone does not guarantee achievement.
According to Erica Fernandes, television actors are compelled to maintain certain industry-required appearances while obeying industry expectations. She used personal examples of unfavorable casting choices where actors faced discrimination based on looks instead of skills to demonstrate the shallow decision-making processes.
Erica Fernandes now devotes her time to family life in Dubai while pursuing her well-being, but she actively engages with her supporters through social media platforms. Through public discussions, she demonstrates her dedication to genuine self-expression alongside a goal to increase awareness of the struggles within the entertainment industry. Erica Fernandes said,
“Being an actor is not enough here. People think that the industry is very fun and full of glamour. But sorry, it is a very hollow industry. It looks shiny from the outside, but you will not find anyone inside. You will feel lonely. There are very few good people. While being in the industry, I have realized that a person is different in front and different behind the back. There have been many times when I felt that things were coming to me, but at the last moment their path was changed.”
She further explained,
“It depends on the people how far they want to go and what they want to achieve. There are many people who don’t care. If they want something, they don’t see any limits. They cross every limit to get it. The price that has to be paid is very high. This is a very easy path that doesn’t last long. There are many WhatsApp groups where people discuss that they had adopted this ‘path’.
