Ishqbaaaz and Naagin 5 actress Surbhi Chandna believes the distinction between television, OTT and films is fading. “Today, audiences care more about talent than the platform an actor comes from. OTT has opened many doors, and I believe good performances will always find their audience. I don’t look at TV, OTT or films as separate worlds anymore. They’re simply different mediums to tell meaningful stories, and as an actor, I would love to explore all of them.”The actress, who recently launched a production house with her husband Karan Sharma, said, “I don’t think it’s necessary for every actor to have another career. If acting fulfills you, that’s absolutely enough. For me, producing wasn’t a backup plan — it was a creative extension of what I already love doing. Karan and I have always enjoyed discussing stories, music and concepts, so it felt like the right time to take that leap together,” she says.Sharing her vision for the production house, Surbhi says, “We don’t want to limit ourselves to one platform. If a story is best suited for television, we’ll make it for television. If it belongs on OTT, we’ll take it there. The medium will always follow the story.” She acknowledges that producing comes with its own challenges but says the experience has been deeply rewarding. “It’s definitely not easy. Producing comes with responsibilities that audiences don’t always see. There are creative decisions, budgets, schedules and countless moving parts. But every challenge teaches you something new, and that’s been the most rewarding part of this journey.”Echoing her thoughts, her husband Karan Sharma says producing gives them the freedom to back stories they truly believe in. “Producing allows us to tell stories we genuinely believe in rather than waiting for the right opportunities. It’s exciting to build something together and create a platform that reflects our creative vision.”
