Not Indispensable

Although past events have resulted in bad news for many workers of the entertainment industry, others saw opportunities that could be beneficial for most. With many talents displaced, networks are hoping to take in the best of these personalities. The popularity and status of such talents can definitely add to the shine of production outfits who will be lucky enough to get their services. Besides, working with various talents brings excitement to production teams.

When a Noted Member (NM) of the production staff of a network found out that the bosses are interested in availing the services of Certain Displaced Talents (CDTs), NM did not like the idea at all.

NM raised the idea that hiring CDTs is an insult to the Loyal Talents (LTs) of the network. NM even claimed that the acting abilities of CDTs are overhyped and LTs are far more superior in the category. However, past records indicated that projects of LTs have not dominated projects of CDTs.

NM talked to Influential Insider (II) to express the above sentiments. II responded that management was still in the discussion process, but interested in exploring a wide field that can be given by the CDTs. NM was concerned because the management was rumored to be interested in a CDT, whose team has had encounters with NM. II had the last say and said that if NM were uncomfortable and have issues in joining productions involving CDTs, other personnel can take over. NM did not respond anymore. In other words, no one was indispensable, and CDTs include people who can do the job of NM.

‘My career is the sum of the decisions I have made. Everyone can work hard, but I work on my own terms. I stand my ground, and once I have committed to anything, I give my 150 per cent. I don't take my work for granted, ever. I know that, forget me, no matter where anyone is, everyone is dispensable. Why would I think I am indispensable then?’ − Priyanka Chopra
