That's how it's supposed to work in any career. You work your way up and build influence along the way. PR is part of it, which she didn’t do.
Insider kids already have the visibility. They have connections. They will have people willing to invest.
What is your contention here exactly? Bollywood has to invest money on complete unknowns with no audience pull?
I troll Alia and Deepika for the sheer stupidity of their PR games, but no PR in the entertainment industry ain't gonna work. If that's what Yami is hoping for, she's in for a bad shock.
My point is you can't compare Yami with Deepika or Madhuri just because they're all outsiders because they belong from different generations. PR wasn't a big deal when Madhuri or even Deepika debuted. Star-kids weren't hogging all the limelight. Box office worked very differently.
Yami has 4 Hits in 11 movies, among which in 3 she had ridiculous roles.
Insiders get visibility through PR. Nobody gave a fuck about Alia before her debut. Definitely not the general audience, they would never care who is Mahesh Bhatt's daughter.
I'm not denying Yami needs good PR, but first she needs good movies and roles.
