That is true! Infact I actually feel like the likes of Esha Deol, Twinkle Khanna, Tushar Kapoor, Uday Chopra, Tanisha etc. (basically the old nepo squad lmao) were way worse than Alia, Ananya, etc. in looks, acting and pretty much everything.
But that said we don’t know how some of the old nepo squad would have fared given the opportunities the new ones (especially Alia) are being given again and again 🤷🏽♀️. Back then they were just expected to try to shine in pretty much the same kind of movies the non-nepos did.... so the comparison was easy and the more talented people won. But now Alia gets almost all the deep, heroine oriented scripts that look likely to be hits whereas others seem to get either the left over scraps she doesn’t want, or glam roles she can’t do.
Though on another note Kareena was always better than Esha, Abhishek etc. as well as Alia imo.
