He stated that he doesn’t firmly support or oppose the practice, emphasizing that the decision should ultimately rest with individual artists. In his latest web series, The Royals, the issue is humorously addressed, shedding light on how the growing size of support teams can significantly impact production budgets. Speaking to PTI, Ishaan Khatter remarked that no single individual should have such a large entourage that it places a strain on the entire production. He noted that the topic lends itself well to some lighthearted, tongue-in-cheek commentary. Reflecting on his own experiences, he shared that they have varied greatly from project to project. On A Perfect Couple, for instance, he managed everything himself without any personal assistance. Whereas, on other sets, actors are often accustomed to having extensive support, which he admitted can sometimes be amusing.
