Veteran actor Raj Babbar, who is returning to television with Vipul Shah’s Pukaar — Call for the Hero, says the reach of the small screen is very big.
“As an actor I never thought which medium I am doing. In 1972, I started doing theatre and in 1975, I started doing TV and then in 1979, I joined cinema and this has continued.
“Whereas, earlier I did TV shows for one episode only, in this show my role as well as the story is very good,” Babbar said.
The actor said while “we say TV is small screen, it’s reach is very big”.
Shah, who had earlier made long running soaps such as Ek Mahal Ho Sapno Ka, is also directing Pukaar — Call for the Hero that will air on Life OK.
The 12-week long series will telecast 24 episodes starting November 24.
