  "account": "Actor Rohit Roy has harshly criticized the television industry, branding it as a \"dustbin medium\" and contrasting it with the film world. During an appearance on the Kindle Cast YouTube channel, the veteran actor expressed his disdain for the conduct of TV actors, claiming they lack the \"style and class\" displayed by their film counterparts.\n\nRoy pointed out the stark difference in the public demeanor of film and television personalities. He noted that when a film star steps out into the public eye, they do so with an air of grace, dignity, and style that is notably absent among TV actors. According to the actor, even though everyone must maintain a facade, film stars manage to do so with a certain elegance that is sorely lacking in the TV world.\n\nWhen comparing gatherings of film and TV actors, Roy noted that the behavior of TV actors is often far more crass and ill-mannered. He emphasized that celebrities should uphold a standard of \"grace\" and \"dignity,\" especially when faced with the presence of paparazzi cameras. Roy's scathing remarks serve as a stark indictment of the state of television acting, suggesting that many TV stars have become \"painfully arrogant\" following their sudden success in Swabhimaan.",
