Since my contract was up for renewal, I asked for more money but never ever said that I will quit Adaalat: Ronit Roy
Ronit Roy is now awaiting the release of his upcoming film Shootout At Wadala. "Here, I play the assistant of Anil Kapoor who starts the encounter system which broke the back of organized crime syndicates in Mumbai. It is a fairly decently- sized role as well," the actor quips. Ronit is a big fan of director Sanjay Gupta, "I know him for years and he is really good at his work," he adds. Ask him about changing equation between TV and cinema and he answers, "Although things are now changing and actors are dabbling across both media streams, yet, you can't say that both have merged. Films have a much bigger canvas for which you get much more time to prepare. I am indeed lucky that Adaalat is shot like a film." Ask him about recent reports that he had threatened to quit the above Contiloe produced show for money, and he hastens to add, "No, since my contract was up for renewal, I obviously asked for more money, but I never ever said that I will quit the show." At this point, Ronit informs us that the entry of Anil Kapoor in TV fiction (24 on Colors) may have started a big churn in the way the small screen is conducted. "I have already been approached by channels for a few series based shows. If this fructifies, it would be very good for seasonal shows that give us much more time to work on our characters," he observes. Ronit is not sure though if audiences are yet ready for seasonal shows. "But they will get used to be over the time and I am glad that the channels themselves are bringing about the change."
