Mumbai, Dec 13: Veteran actor Pankaj Kapoor, who was part of trendsetting shows like "Karamchand", says that he consciously moved away from television about a decade ago because the medium was changing and that working in films is far more satisfying.
"About eight to nine years back, I decided not to do television actively because I felt the face of television was changing and someone like me would not be able to relate to the kind of work that is done today," Pankaj told Ians.
"Also, I felt that it was straining and tiring because you had long hours of work and whatever you did was lost in 20 minutes," he added.

"They still do," Shahid Kapoor is quick to point out.A few weeks ago, Parmeet Sethi, the director of Badmaash Company, had admitted that his elder son had come expecting to be bored through 18 reels of a typical Hindi potboiler. Instead, he had been surprised by a slick flick that was as much cool Hollwood as it was commercial Bollywood.One of the reasons for that, you discover, is because his lead actor's wardrobe has been borrowed liberally from Top Gun Tom Cruise, Shah Rukh Raj Khan from Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge and Rangeela Aamir Khan.
