If Prakash Padukone was so influential, he would have got himself a Bharat Ratna award which Sachin Tendulkar got. Even Lata Mangeshkar was awarded a Bharat Ratna. Being ranked world's no.1 player is quite an achievement, but he got only Padma Shree which most of the recognised cricketers earn. Certainly not influential enough.
But well....DP belonged to a well off & recognised family for sure. And before entering bollywood she had a successful modeling career. If forumnews is to be believed, she never cried sob stories about outsider's struggles either. So..... it's ok I guess.
If you dig deeper almost everyone will become an insider😆
