Do you think Television actors are compulsive liars?


A couple of days ago an article was published in a well known news paper that TV celebrities are habitual liars. They lie with a straight face.

I agree they do lie, they lie about their age, relationship status, they lie that they share cold vibes with their co-stars; they lie about their body enhancements, about their sexual orientation, about casting couch, about their struggle etc.

Well there is no one in the whole universe that could say, in all honesty and haven't lied on several occasions. Each and everybody lies including me and those who are reading this article.  It may only be WHITE lies, but everyone tells lies or OMITS THE TRUTH sometimes.

We lie when we are afraid of what would happen if we told the truth.  We start lying at around age of around 4 or 5, this first lying is not malevolent. But eventually children begin to use lying to get out of mess or get something they want.

Those lies by which we pretend to protect someone’s feelings are not a big deal at all and are known as WHITE LIES.   People who seem to feel compelled to lie about both the small and large stuff are pathological liars. They lie to protect themselves, look good, gain economically or publicly and avoid chastisement.

I called few actors and asked then “Do you think Television actors are compulsive liars?” Some of the actors refused to comment on it, may be because they fall in category of pathological liars. Here are the views of few actors:


ANGAD HASIJA
Before entering in glamour world do actors take oath that they will never lie? No, then why they supposed to tell each and every personal thing in public. We are also a normal human being and don’t want anyone to access to our personal space. Life is not Sach Ka Saamna, we have to lie in some situations and we have full rights for it. 


SARA KHAN
Tell me the name of one person who does not lie. In my opinion, we all have to lie on certain unavoidable occasions. Those who claim that all TV actors are compulsive liars are themselves a big liar. I am an actor and I am here for work, no one has rights to peep in my personal life. When I don’t want to share something in public, people say I am a liar.


SMITA SINGH
90% do it, but I fall in remaining 10%. I am not afraid of anybody. I don’t lie because I've got nothing to hide.  One of the actress said she is virgin,and she has two kids, bachche kya Big Bazaar ki sell me mile. All the girls are virgin in the industry, bullshit. Why people say casting couch does not exist in this industry. The film industry is full of liars and fakes; I am astonished why they hide the truth.



ANUPRIYA KAPOOR
I don’t think so, no one is compulsive liar. But yes sometimes we have to hide something and it’s our right. It’s completely up to us what we want to make public and what not. If I hide my age then it will not cause any harm to anybody, but I point is that why would I tell how old I am? Even then Bollywood and Hollywood actors lie about their age, relationships and casting couch. Every human being has to lie in certain situations.

ADITI GUPTA
Yes some of the actors do lie, but it’s something personal to them. Whenever someone asks me some personal questions and I don’t want to share it I simple say NO COMMENTS.  Why to lie if we have the right to refuse to answer questions.




SHIKHA SWAROOP
It’s a very strong statement, actors’ chamouflage the truth with diplomacy. It’s required in the glamour industry. For me a lie is not a lie if it does not harm anyone.

ZEB KHAN
I think there should be some privacy, why would an actor make his personal life public. Every human being is a liar, we all lie in certain occasions so what’s the big deal when an actor hide his age or relationship status.


SHASHANK VYAS
I completely disagree with the statement that ‘TV actors are compulsive liars’, every normal human being lie. Normal girl also hide their age, people do lie when they go for an interview they say they have offer from other companies. Just because TV actor’s life is more public there lies are highlighted. Judge actors by their work not by their personal life or lies. Kaam bolta hai boss.

  32. Thanks for the article...some very interesting comments from some of the stars. It's true everyone tells lies at one point or chooses to hide the truth. Even though these actors have choosen a career that puts them into the spotlight they too have a right to privacy. And I do like Additi's comment they also have the choice to say no comment.

    But I guess some people find it easier to simply lie so they don't have to deal with the dreaded follow up questions that asks why? We are all curious by nature and the media's job is to report on the stories. Sometimes there is a fine line between reporting and just trying to dish on something that has nothing to do with anything. And you wonder why stars lie to the public or the media? And there is the whole image game...people want to put their stars on a pedal stool and look up to them. They somehow expect or demand that their stars become good role models but the are human too and make mistakes. And it's a pretty tough job being a role model. What happened to looking up to normal people like your Mom, your Dad, or your teacher? They work just as hard. Anyways, I think I've gone why off topic on this post reply...lol.

    Thanks for the article!

    (Lol...all these sides comments about people wanting certain tv stars to come back together and act in a serial together again...what's up with that when it has nothing to do with the article itself?)

  48. Lying comes to celebrities naturally. They are programmed to deny everything. From their relationship status to sharing cold vibes with their co-actors (no two actors from the same league can be friends), to their enhanced body parts to their friendship with the who's who of the glamour industry, and don't be stunned to spot the name of the first man to land on the moon on their friend-list.

    Poonam Pandey:

    Can there be a better start than this? She is the reigning queen of the kingdom of lies. Didn't she lie to the entire nation about stripping if the Indian cricket team brought home the world cup? Our cricketers sweated and slugged it out and brought home the trophy but she did a volte face. She cited every possible excuse lifted from her book titled 'Infinite ways to lie' to save her face. from an FIR filed against her to threats from radical groups followed. Bottom line: She made headlines with her false and never-intended-to-be-fulfilled statements. We should've known better.

    Ali Merchant:

    He has often taken the media for a ride with his lies. He claimed he was the lead of the movie that stars his good friend Shaleen Bhanot. When he was caught, he sheepishly confessed that he was coaxed by the PR-turned-producer to give out false statements. Well, when you released those statements why did your good friend Shaleen keep mum? It was probably a hand-in-glove trick to get the spotlight to shine on him for some time, and hoping that some other poor unsuspecting filmmaker would be conned into signing him. It didn't work.

    Anuj Sachdeva:

    He's always surrounded by controversies. And Anuj comes up with his own version of the truth every time. He has been accused of all kinds of things from infuriating his co-actor Shivshakti's father by misguiding her to throw tantrums and demand pay hikes. His latest being that he isn't dating Urvashi Dholakia, whereas, the actress has confessed to a particular section of the media about her proximity with the lad. It's almost as if he isn't even aware of the concept of truth.

  49. If you talk about Ali, you can't not talk about his now-estranged wife Sara Khan.We wonder why she wasn't considered to play the lead in Looteri Dulhan? A show that focuses on a woman who cons people for money. Sara does it so well! She had Veena Malik, Dolly Bindra and Shweta Tiwari all confused about whose side she was really on between Ashmit Patel and Ali Merchant. She even 'faked' marriage (they were already married) to Ali Merchant on Bigg Boss, because she got paid mega bucks. Guys, she is on her way to dethrone Poonam Pandey any

    given day.

    Shaleen Bhanot:

    He fed the fourth estate tales about an eye-popping amount of land he owns outside Mumbai. We heard about how he is into real estate and how the value of his property was multiplying with every nano second. Even on the acting front, he left us jaw dropped with his claims about his intended Bollywood debut. An Anuj Saxena find, the actor was launched on TV almost half a decade ago with Kulvaddhu. He boasted that Anuj's production house was like his own and how he was going to get an impressive launch pad. It still hasn't happened. Currently, he is rumoured to be playing the lead in a movie. Wonder if one of these projects will ever release!

    Shweta Tiwari:

    She can be crowned as the queen of the game of hide-and-seek. She played the 'Abhinav Kohli who?' card till she was ready to come out with the truth. On the reality show Big Boss, she denied knowing him. Then at some point, she came out and said he was a friend, and only recently has she come out and admitted to her relationship with him. That was after journos were fed with the staple diet of 'Who-says-I-have-a-boyfriend' and the 'I-don't-discuss-my-personal-life for years.'

    The entire industry:

    Well, whoever is associated with acting, apparently happen to have had gulped the youth nectar. They never age beyond 25 years and if they have debuted late in life, you can never see them celebrate their 30th birthday. Wish we could be as lucky as them too. Oh, to stay in your 20s, all your life. What fun!
