small screen's lose n big screen's gain

Have you seen Prachi Desai in the period of post Rock on!? In the recent award ceremony at Kolkata where she received her first award as Best Actresses for Rock on! she was more than happy. You wonder why? Because, post Rock on! we can hardly say that her life is rocking....she has only one film in hand(with Govinda....poor girl!) , Kasam se has also gone out of her hand now, except the Ad of Tata Indicom she doesn't have many more endorsements to do....then why it seems like she is very happy? Because she is the only small screen bahu whose film scored a six at the theatre. We wonder, why is these small screen popular actors failed to make it on big screen? Why don't we have another SRK or vidya balan who can successfully make a long way from the small screen to the bollywood? These days Television is as popularised as Films....even big names like Big B, SRK,Salman are coming back to small screen. But why the Television actors are not appreciates on big screen? Take Rajeev Khandelwal starrer Amir for example, although the film was critically acclaimed but nobody noticed Rajeev. That may be because the tag of 'Sujal' of Kahin to hoga is still stuck to him. That is the same story everywhere. Can you imagine Tulsi doing a Kajra re? Or imagine Parvati doing a Pappu cant dance? Awful, no? Yes this is the reason...these actors are so overexposed on the Television that its tough for the audience to accept 'em in a new avatar. Moreover Television actors lacks the glam quotient that big screen required. Ronit Roy can be the 'Big B' of the small screen but he is surely not worth a watch on big screen. But there is one actor who is surely underrated here....he is Hussain K. The guy has got everything...he has great physique, he can dance, he can act, he has a big fan following...but for an unknown reason he cant get his worth till now. Even Shamak Davar's comment on Yeh hai Jalwa made no difference in his career graph. We pity for him! Actors like Shweta Tiwari, Ronit Roy, Rohit Roy comes & go from the big screen unobservedly. It proves that its tough for the actors who bring into our drawing room every day to shed their character image.
