Shweta Tiwari said that TV content has become less relatable

The Indian daily soaps are often linked with drama and unrealistic portrayals of reality. Shweta feels that the content was better when she began working on daily soaps several years ago. Although, the storyline didn't seem entirely realistic, people felt relatable. She said that the TV serials nowadays don't feel real. In her words:

"Nowadays, it seems like anything goes. You have scenes with people getting locked in safes, and it just doesn't feel real. We have characters surviving snake bites without any repercussions, or people hanging from kites! I even saw a scene where a girl spins and falls on a curtain, only to have it somehow wrap around her neck."
