I honestly think Tara has been walking a very tight rope ever since her debut.
She was given a shit role in SOTY2; KJo used her as a token outsider in SOTY2 to curb the nepotism debate during promotions. Anyone who gives Tara grief for her role and say just how much better Ananya was in it, should sit for a while and think about the kind of disgusting game KJo and his cronies played during the film's promotion. From the promos I thought the two girls will have equally important roles, but in actuality, they gave Tara a bitchy one-note character and Ananya a sympathetic character so that the audience ends up liking the latter more. It doesn't matter who out of the two turns out to be a star in the long run, its just sad to see the treatment outsiders get from the beginning in comparison to star kids.
Tara is probably very much aware of all this that I mentioned above, but she knows well not to bite the hand that fed her, and will continue to be mum about the entire thing because opening her mouth would mean being ostracized from BW circles forever.
PS- I know this is probably not the right time to raise these issues, but since she was brought up in this thread, I just had to.
@Bold This! But anyways that's a whole different topic, let's just hope people become less toxic now and learn to be kinder.
