THIS.
I feel movie choice/role choice was bad for both.
If they were mentored by karan they could have taken bettere author-backed roles and be at the top. Alals, as I have discussed in another thread, karan seems to have favourites even amongst nepo kids and he promotes those the most, whilst giving itsy-bitsy roles to the rest.
After Lootera, if Sonakshi went for a SLB/RH/KK movie.. where her role had some 'meat' but was also part of a BIg production, she could have emerged better.
Parineeti seems to have given up in favour of cash and taken any roles and doing them just for the money- disinterested. Pity She could have been the biggest star of the new gen.
