Rohit Bharadwaj avers there is no scope for short films in India!
Small screen actor Rohit Bharadwaj, who is well-known for his shows like Navya of Star Plus and Na Bole Tum Na Maine Kuch Kaha of Colors, has recently completed shooting of his debut Punjabi short film Waapasi.

Despite the happiness of having worked in the short film, Rohit rues how the country is not yet ready for the short film format. “Honestly, there’s no scope for short films here. In our country, commercially, short films have no mark. We took two-and-a-half years to make this film as we didn't have a producer. At times, we are not allowed to do our kind of cinema. But in a short film, we can do anything, the way we want. This is for creative satisfaction. Worldwide, short films do well,” said Rohit.

He is happy being a part of the film, directed by Deepak Sharma, and said the film revolves around the lead actor, who stays abroad and mints money, but when he comes home, he doesn't feel at home. He also informed that the film was awarded at the 3rd Dada Saheb Film Festival and he bagged the best actor award for his performance.

Talking about future project, Rohit said some shows are in the pipeline but is now focusing on films. “I am trying for TV, but my goal is films. In our industry, getting films is not easy. I don't plan to stick to TV for a long time. I'm just waiting for good role because I don't want to do just anything,” he said.
