Television actress Nia Sharma feels the audience finds it tough to accept small screen actors in bold roles, since they are used to seeing them as bahus and betis. Nia, who became a household name with her turn in TV show Jamaai Raja, will next be seen in Vikram Bhatt's web series, Twisted.
"TV isn't a wide medium when it comes to boldness on the small screen because of the audience. It reaches out to the audience, but while keeping the traditions intact. The only medium where people are truly exploring themselves and going out to experiment is the digital space," Nia told PTI.

The actress says she was apprehensive doing bold scenes in the web series due to the kinds of roles that she has earlier done on TV.
"People have played roles like these before and done boldscenes on-screen, but just because my background is television, people will blow it out of proportion," she added.
