@BOLD Do mention the fact that a one movie old Bhagyashree is from the royal Patwardhan family and is the Princess of Sangli, Maharashtra. She obviously had a lot more clout and influence than other outsiders in the industry.
not to mention the time period of that demand, when outsiders were given a fair enough chance in bollywood and whoever did well was promoted...
thats why we have a Mithun Chakraborthy who used to sell potatoes before coming in bollywood and A JAckie Shroff who used to live in the slums of the mumbai.......can a mumbai slum dweller today think of getting a lead role in bollywood movie ? will the nepo gang allow him to survive without looking down upon him ??
edited to add :
just searched on net and got to know that Mithun was part of naxalite group in bengal.........dont know how true it is
