To this, the actor said that some of the TV actors have earlier made it big in Bollywood but they also had their own share of struggle. The Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai actor revealed that the tag of an 'outsider' never leaves a TV actor who forays into Bollywood. She went on to say that Sushant had made way for all of them in the television industry to make it big in Bollywood. But she went on to say that the Dil Bechara actor's demise has scared her now.

The Kasautii Zindagii Kay actor said that she wished there was a fine balance in the film industry and that if a star kid gets 5 to 6 films, an outsider should at least be given 3 films as an equal opportunity. Hina said that this does not happen and the opportunities are only one-sided and that she wishes that TV actors as well as talented outsiders are given more foothold in the industry.
