The actress, talking to Media, reflected on how the film world has evolved over the years, especially with the shift from the pre-social media era to the post social media times.

The actress, in an exclusive conversation with Media, spoke about the changes she has witnessed on film sets over the years.

Shriya said that earlier, everything was very different. “The lights were harsh and would hurt your eyes, the cameras were different, and I remember waiting on set until I heard the sound of the camera rolling,” she said.

She highlighted that in current times, the technology has boomed and become far more comfortable, with softer lights and advanced cameras, making the working environment easier for actors.

The Drishyam actress also spoke about how the structure of the industry has changed over the years.

“Earlier, you dealt with one manager. Now there are agencies, and you have to understand and deal with so many people, them especially being mostly ‘children’,” she said, adding that the younger generation brings a different kind of knowledge. “They know things that we may not, and you have to accept that change.”

Reflecting on the emotional highs and lows of a long career, Saran said, “There are days when you feel low and days when you feel on top of the world. You learn to navigate through it by surrounding yourself with people who support you.”
