What’s it like being an established actor in 2024? What’s it like navigating and bouncing between shows and films, platforms and mediums, theatrical and streaming?
To shed light on just that, for the season finale of The Streaming Show podcast, I spoke to Jim Sarbh. It feels like the talented actor has been everywhere over the last few years. On streaming, we’ve seen him on popular shows like Four More Shots Please, the beloved Made In Heaven, and one of my favourites Rocket Boys for which he even bagged an international Emmy nomination.
He also recently started his own UA-cam series Crew Cut, which I strongly recommend, in which popular actors interview the storytellers and artists behind the scenes about the craft of filmmaking.
Jim spoke to me about the ongoing …often soul-crushing conflict between an actor and artist wanting to do good work against the constant calculations of playing the positioning and perception game. Along with the current slump and uncertainty within the film industry, flitting between Shakespeare and playing the villain in his first Telugu film, his thoughts on the talent management ecosystem, and a whole lot more.

    For wider exhibition you need good, rooted & relatable content which resonates with the masses. Today's content esp from the bollywood ecosystem is not just subpar, it is the opposite of it, except few of course which ironically are some of the most successful too. Taking the template & ideologies from the west & giving it an Indian flavour is not going to cut it. Whoever has their finger on the pulse of the larger audience will win, accept it.

    Hey Suchin! You're doing a great job! Thanks for having these conversations! I had a request. If a screenwriter wants to pitch their bible to a producer like Siddharth, how can they reach out to them what kind of prep should a screenwriter be armed with in order to make the pitch? Could you ask a question like this to the producers/studio heads you're interviewing? It'll be a great help to aspiring screenwriters, since most of us aren't aware of the nitty-gritties of it. Thanks :)

    These guys think people like Jhanvi is an actor .... SLOW CLAPS for these medicore editors who are just blabbering anything and trust me its all wrong !!! In a Poor Country like INDIA , there is no concept of an editor coz we don't even an apt edit culture, its the director who takes all the call's while editing , these guys are just operators who knows the software thats it ... Film Editor is itself a different narrator and that is not practised in INDIA ...

    @Suchin I came across your channel today. It’s great to finally see a host who has carried out his research, can ask intelligent questions, can hold his own and let’s the guest speak rather than sharing his own life experiences (as if anybody cares about them). Keep it going.

    Hahaha i thought ki budget issue sirf tv main hai editors ke liye but yeh bimari toh web series & films main bhi hai....you can pay more to those assistant editor as you only hire them... they work for you only... increse your budget na why to worry as u ppl are big name now....one more thing how to get webseries or projects as this industry only works on contacts...& new genration have very less chance if you don't have contacts...thanks for bringing behind camera's hero's in front...

    Yes, more of this, please. Please bring in more editors, cinematographers and technical artists. Because, unlike other industries, people don't give them enough respect nor cover them as much as they should. There is obviously a lot of insights and knowledge that we can get them. So, thank you for doing this. 🫡❤️

    I don’t understand what’s the problem if a driver gets paid more than the actor?? Please check with the cab driver who drops you at home after your shift ends, there is a high chance he gets paid much more than you do … A movie story / script is possibly the most important asset in making a movie- how much does a writer get paid?? What facilitated the agent ecosystem in our film industry?? Kalki is made with a budget of 450 crores, the Chandrayaan was carried out in a budget of 600 crores! In a country people get what they deserve to get!! We promote cheap entertainment, discard intelligence.

    As Anurag Kashyap said recently that the film stars' Agents/Mangers were responsible for their astronomical salaries, and everybody down the line were getting underpaid and exploited! And the fact that editors/Asst editors who format and compose the scenes into one whole, are also in the slaves galley, is ridiculous!

    The research they did into making shows before starting Family Man blew my mind... esp. how they would watch existing acclaimed shows (including one of my favorites, Homeland) and note down the way those stories progressed and scenes played out -- no different from keeping a literature review journal when reading other papers in one's field as a PhD student (I'd know as a PhD student myself lol). Absolutely incredible! No wonder they're so good at what they do!!! Thank you so much for this conversation, Suchin :)
