Created by Sumit Roy, Showrunner Mihir Desai and Directed by Mihir Desai and Archit Kumar, Showtime is helmed by Emraan Hashmi, Mahima Makwana with Mouni Roy, Rajeev Khandelwal, Shriya Saran, Vishal Vashishtha, Neeraj Madhav and Vijay Raaz in pivotal roles.
Social media has become an integral part of everyone’s lives now. It has leveraged the opportunity for artists to post about their work, and connect with their audiences. Actor Emraan Hashmi recently spoke about the vicious aspect of social media ahead of Showtime – All Episodes on Disney+ Hotstar
Elaborating on the same, Emraan Hashmi said, “I think there are two schools of thoughts, some actors want to put everything up in the public domain, to make their lives seem interesting and Some actors like to keep a certain compartmentalized way of viewing things and they like their private lives to be private and I come from that school of thought. However, none of them is right or wrong. Sometimes, it might get intrusive but I don’t see it as a big issue. I’ve never had a situation where things have become intrusive, it never reached that point. I think even the press has been extremely courteous. Through the 20 years of my career, I’ve never had a fact of that nature where they’ve been very intrusive about my privacy. But I’m sure some actors have had that and as far as trolling goes, thankfully I have not been trolled to that point, but you have one of the instances when, first of all, I do check comments sometimes, but I’m not insistently on social media checking who’s saying what about me? But yes, trolling is a reality. I think it’s just people who probably like criticizing and they have some bone to pick with the world and sometimes they’re having something bad happen in their own life. And that echoes in what they say about actors and we become a soft target. So I think you have to take it with a bit of salt and not take it too seriously.”
