Bharti Singh and Harsh Limbachiyaa talk about toxic culture in the television industry 

During the episode, Harsh said that earlier television actors would function on few hours of sleep and work more than 15 hours. 

“I've seen directors and creatives suffer heart attacks and health issues due to sleep deprivation. People would drink tea, smoke, eat only set food, and suffer from acidity, but wouldn't be able to control it,” he said.

Bharti also added, “I've even seen girls working with drips on daily soaps. They were not allowed to go home as the shot was not telecast by then.”

Harsh Limbachiyaa also revealed how the directors on the sets didn't care if the actors were in a life-or-death scenario. He went on to say that they were just interested in getting the perfect shot for the camera. Prachi Desai also revealed that when she worked in television shows, she used to drink a lot of coffee to get through the day.
