Ushna made the comments in a thread posted on micro-blogging site Twitter. The overwhelming majority of things in the industry, she said, were an illusion. She also mentioned how there was more hype and less talent in the "breakfast epiphany". The crowd, she said, simply followed where it was "strategically led". "Fraud", she said, had "almost everything and it’s seeped into all forms of show-business: be it films, TV, humanitarian work, sports." This, the actor termed "sad and a bit demoralising".
"Can I tell you guys an industry secret? Most people in it are frauds. Most things are an illusion. When there is a lot of hype there is often (not always) less talent to back it up. It’s smoke & mirrors. It’s PR. It’s set narratives.The crowd follows where it’s strategically led. Part 2 of my last tweet. This was just a random breakfast epiphany that fraud isn’t just a thing, it’s almost everything and it’s seeped into all forms of show-business: be it films, TV, “humanitarian work”, sports. The ratio of scams to authenticity is..sad & a bit demoralising."
