Nobody is denying about star kids getting brighter opportunities than outsiders but she has proved herself .Yes initially she got roles on the silver platter but now she is where she is because of her talent .

see you are still ignoring the brand name factor, don't get me wrong not saying it is fair but that is life. here in ny models are struggling to walk fashion week and the likes of Kylie Jenner just walts in to the top designers shows. his is because they have the Jenner Kardashian west, same goes for kareena still being able to endorse brands, its a business and I will go with a brand value.

it's the same way a ceo puts his son/daughter in management or as a partner and an outsider has to work their way up


Yes I agree there is nepotism everywhere. Like a doctor's child becomes a doctor in many cases or many times an army kid becomes an army man. But one should see the percentage of such cases vs people who are children of other professions coming in. Only in Bollywood and Indian politics is the percentage of people coming in via nepotism so high.

Ultimately audience is the main thing
If any one can win over the audience it is a win

nepotism gives u chance to star in a movie.
nepotism may also earn u an award.
bt nepotism can not earn u fans.
the fact that alia has fans proves she has
earned her rights through her hard work to
stay n rule here.

abt the bhats its rather unfortunate to be born to them
than being a privilege.coz even if she deserves ppl
will snide her with her unfortunate lineage.

Nobody gives a rat's ass about the Bhatt family bro. They are old news. Aashiqui 2 was great yadayadaya they're old news.

It's her association with K.Jo that needs to be under the scanner and she knows it well, hence it wan't mentioned in the interview.

K.Jo got her into Highway, her performance in SOTY did NOT.

She's a fine actress, but lets not pretend.


KJO got all those films for Siddharth M as well AND CLEARLY he hasn't been able to prove his mettle as an actor STILL

Its not Bhatt surname or Nepotism, but favouritism and CONNECTIONS that help you!

Bull shit

Trained actors with stellar debut didn't get so many good movies one after another the way alia sprang from SOTY to Highway.

All thanks to flag bearer of nepotism ( love kangna for saying that out on open in his show itself) KJO

Alia is one of my fav but most of her movies had been from Dharma
1. SOTY
2. 2 States
3. HSKD
4. Shandaar
5. Kapoor and Sons
6. Dear Zindagi
7. BNKD

Except Highway and UP, all her movies were from Dharma PH. She deserves credit for her amazing acting/performance in all these films but she got these movies because of a famous family name and connections.

I don't blame her but KJO for giving number of chances to star kids but not outsiders.

Disaappointed


And what do you mean by that?
Why shouldn't I support someone who's really talented, hardworking and more importantly doesn't come with an attitude of 'you-know-who-I-am' like the kapoors and khans kids..even someone like Pari has more air within her for being chopra girl but she never gets picked on?

Alia's dad is probably the most hated guy outside Bollywood, the family gets called all sorts of names.
Despite all those negative attributes If Alia is successful it's only due to her own talent, hard work and goodwill that she has earned with her humble attitude in such short amount of time.

Bhatt family name didnt help in bringing people to theatres,lol

I honestly don't understand why people continue harping on about nepotism in BW all the time, as if it is exclusive to BW. It's there in pretty much most of the professions out there. At least according to my own personal experience or I maybe delusional. šŸ˜•

Yes. People that are well connected or hail from an illustrious lineage do have an undue advantage in the way that their career gets a kick-start & they get numerous opportunities despite films not working. But that's just life. And as I said, it's not exclusive to the film world. Those who have the drive & ambition will always succeed. How many star kids have actually made it to the top, anyway?

Alia along with being a star kid has all those qualities & hence she is successful. Being a star kid alone has not granted her any actual success.
