In an interview, he described himself as grateful for the opportunities he got on TV.

Actress Shagufta Ali talked about the shooting methods and old people in TV of her time and also expressed her views about today’s artists and said that sometimes even directors are not listened to.
civility is disappearing
While talking in the interview, Shagufta Ali said, “Nowadays TV serials are being closed since few years, there is no good manners. Even if you ask old people about this, they will also say the same thing. I am not the only one to complain. Among all the seniors who are there, they will confess, they will tell that ‘Yes, good manners are not everything’. ‘Good morning, hello, hi, do you know what is happening?’ No’.”
The biggest reason is to be busy with mobile.
Shagufta Ali also told that mobile phones have become the biggest reason for distraction on television. He said, “Actors are often engrossed in their phones even during the scene. ‘According to him, if an actor is standing in the background of the shot, his eyes should be fixed on the actor in front so that he can react naturally’, but many actors keep looking at their phones and do not pay attention to the scene despite the director repeatedly giving instructions on the microphone. He saw a young actress so engrossed in her phone that she did not even hear the director’s voice.”
no respect for directors
Recalling the working style of people of her time, Shagufta Ali said that she worked with all kinds of directors, good, bad and very bad, but never had the courage to give them a wrong answer. She also said that she knew many times that a director did not know the basics but still always respected her.
Shagufta said on not being disciplined
Shagufta Ali also says that in today’s time it is disappointing to see on the sets, people ignore practice, while the presence of monitors and selfies become more important for the actors. He admitted that it is difficult for him to accept the current work culture, because directors are completely disregarded. Kalakars lack focus and do not pre-practice at all. He also told that despite the crew repeatedly remaining silent, people keep talking about the shooting.
