-*-Barriers between small, big screen fading: Mohnish Actor Mohnish Bahl, who has worked in films like "Hum Aapke Hain Koun...!" and "Hum Saath-Saath Hain" and has also played host on TV shows as well as essayed the lead in TV soaps, finds the distance between the small and the silver screen diminishing over time.
"What has happened is that a lot of actors have put their one foot here and one foot there," Mohnish told IANS, citing the example of actors like Salman Khan, Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan, who have dabbled in both worlds.
"Then there are the smaller names like myself, who have been here and there," he added.
The 56-year-old actor feels the audience wants to see their favourite actors -- medium notwithstanding.
"I think this realisation has come to the actors also, that it is not necessary to be associated only with silver screen... That barrier is over and done with," he added.
On the work front, Mohnish is currently seen hosting the crime-based show "Hoshiyaar...Sahi Waqt, Sahi Kadam" on &TV.
-*-Southern filmdom more technician dominated: Daisy Shah Actress Daisy Shah, who has worked in Bollywood as well as the southern film world, feels there's only a thin difference between the two industries.
Daisy made her Bollywood debut in 2014 in superstar Salman Khan starrer "Jai Ho" and has been seen in southern films, including in "Bodyguard" and "Bachchan".
Asked if she has seen any difference in the way of working in both industries, Daisy told IANS: "All industries function in their own way. They have their own way of doing things."
"What I have understood is that in the south, it's a technician dominated industry and Bollywood is a more artiste-dominated industry," she added.
Daisy, who was last seen on screen in 2015 in the erotic thriller "Hate Story 3", will next be seen in the upcoming romantic comedy "Ramratan", which is directed by Govind Sakariya and also stars Rishi Bhutani.
