Aushim Khetrapal
, renowned for Sai Ki Mahima, Sai Vibhuti and Sai Bhakton ki Sachchi Kahaniyaan expressed his deep concern over the diminishing essence of
mythological shows
on
Indian television
. The accomplished actor, who has garnered widespread acclaim for his compelling performances, believes that the true spirit of mythological narratives is gradually fading away in the current scenario.
He believes while the production quality, technology, and visual effects have advanced significantly, there seems to be a simultaneous loss of the core essence that makes mythological narratives resonate with audiences.
Speaking on the same, he Aushim said, “I've been fortunate to be part of some incredible mythological projects, and I've witnessed the evolution of this genre firsthand. While the advancements in technology have allowed for visually stunning productions, there's a noticeable shift in the storytelling. The authentic connection with the mythological roots, the profound spiritual messages, and the emotional depth seem to be taking a backseat. It's essential to strike a balance between modern production values and the timeless essence that defines these narratives. The true beauty of these shows lies in their ability to convey profound messages, instill moral values, and connect with the spiritual fabric of Indian culture”
Speaking on whether he will go for mythological shows on television or not, he revealed, “The evolution of mythological content on television is a trend I've proudly endorsed, and if the opportunity aligns with my vision, I will continue contributing to more platforms with mythological show and more concepts to bring back viewership on TV.”
