(thus fooling people that it's her 'acting' that is so great.. rather than the script being the main good thing), plus the roles being altered for her and other' roles being cut/diminished.
I also think there's a lot of industry that dislikes Aloo and KJo and these udnerhand tactics.. not just the General Public..
Look at Kalank. She did not suit the role AT ALL. Yet not only she got it handed on a platter, her screen presence was increased and the screen modified to 'showcase' her the most.. so much so that it messed the whole narrative into the messy stuff we saw as the end result.
I think the biggest issue people have with her is her not getting roles on merit (or for what she is good at- like modern , ditzy type roles). She is not THAT talented , nor THAT multifaceted to be able to explain the variety of roles she got.
Put it simply, if only releasing with her father.. she wouldn't been better than , say, Shraddha.. maybe she'd have been in an even a lower position.
And she'd have to AUDITION.. rather than beg or cajole.. or get KJo to get her roles.. cause outside Dharma no one was casting her until this last year.
