Sushmita Sen reveals she missed out on opportunities due to inability in networking
New Delhi:Sushmita Sen is one of the most loved and talented actresses in the entertainment industry. The actress stayed away from showbiz for almost ten years before making her dhamakedar comeback with a web series Aarya. Sushmita chose the OTT platform instead of mainstream Bollywood films to return to the entertainment world, and it has left several puzzled. Recently, the actress got chatty with film critic Sucharita Tyagi for a video interaction on Critics Choice Short Film and Series Awards' Facebook page and revealed why she chose OTT platforms over films for her comeback.
She said, "I think the 10-year hiatus set the priorities in order. It told me what I need to do and what not to do. Mainstream cinema wasn't giving me what I wanted. A lot of it was a pre-conceived notion of my age and my screen age and that I hadn't worked for ten years."
She further added due to her reluctance and inability to network, the actress missed out on opportunities.
