										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ranvir Shorey confesses that not much of work was coming his way in the film industry, even before the pandemic hit us last year in March. And it’s only now, with the advent of OTT space that he’s getting good opportunities, and the actor isn’t complaining.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think OTT platforms are a godsend, any way you look at it. Whether you’re an artiste, technician, writer, or even for the audience, there’s no fear of you being elbowed out by a bigger film, or a bigger personality, or politics of film business,” he says.</p>
<p>Shorey was recently seen in the web show Sunflower, and he’s currently shooting for another one, besides an online chat show that’s also lined up.</p>
<p>The actor goes on to add that things get murkier when it comes to theatrical releases. “There are only limited number of theatres and limited number of shows, so that used to make the game quite dirty actually,” says the Khosla Ka Ghosla actor.</p>
<p>Given that streaming platforms give equal space to every film irrespective of the scale it’s made on, Shorey views them as democratic by their nature.</p>
