They look smart,attractive and talented;but do not have the look of self confidence born out of tremendous media attentioa and success, unlike the big screen stars.
The biggest success story of a TV actor-turned film star is that of Shahrukh Khan, closely followed by Vidya Balan, Irrfan Khan and R Madhavan. Ronit Roy gave one hit (Jaan Tere Naam) as a film actor before a string of flops forced a career change. He was then resurrected by TV and is now being appreciated for films cameos too. His brother Rohit, too, started off as a flop film actor. Many other character artists and TV personalities like Rannvijay, Raghu-Rajeev, Aditya Roy Kapoor, Anusha and Chang (of Indian Idol fame) have acted in films with varying degrees of critical and commercial success.
