Is This The Most Nepotistic Era? - Page 6

Twinkle & Bobby had a lot of hype. The Barsaat movie had its share of stories lol! I lived through that hype even though it was all through the filmi magazines.

Best debut of the millennium goes to a star kid Hrithik Roshan(not complaining)

I am not comparing, but the thing is you said Aamir and Ajay aren't technically star kids, so I said neither are.
Baat wohi khatam honi thi, but why you posted that reply??
Because if you trying to make it like they didn't had any advantage over outsiders than it makes no sense.
Plus purane zaamane mai, films used longer than today, some used to pick up in 5th week, 6th week.
So post release hype was as important, it is not like today's time where first day settles the box office in most cases.

When it comes to Indian cinema, nepotism maybe older than prostitution.

Arre why are we commenting that it existed from black and white era, the TM asking is this the all time high? The answer in my opinion is, yes. Because it's systematic now, producers directors doing it to make money quickly. They know nepostism is a salable and in demand brand, because industry kids have the money (And connection) to spend on PR to create a fake demand for themselves. Before, audience used to care for superstars kids, now toh audience even wait for Chunky Panday's nephew's debut.

lekin ush time mai bhi toh log apne launde laundiya ko hi kaam dete the na.
aisa toh nahi tha ki only super star ke bacche milte hai.
Aur aisa bhi nahi hai ki every one wants Aahaan Pandey to debut.
Agar Dhadak mai Jhanvi(Sri wala sympathy nahi hota) toh Ishaan ko dekh ne ghanta koi jata.

@bold:where did I try to do that 😕...the only advantage that insiders had over outsiders was that they got their first film easily which in itself is a big thing...I have never denied it...I am saying that there is a difference between Abhishek /Bobby and Aamir/Ajay...today with TV deals,music rights do producers really loose money?back then even unknown outsiders were given opportunities by well known producers which is not the case today...

Compared to the 90s I feel like we have a lot more outsiders now.
