Parents can make movies starring their kids but ultimately it is the audience who decides whether they are worth watching or not.
Parents can only spend so much money beyond that they can't do much. They can't keep producing movies for their children if the tickets don't get sold at the box office.
So there's no point wasting time on social media cribbing about nepo kids. If they have something in them they click if not they fade into oblivion.
Mahesh babu is a huge star where as his elder brother who died very recently struggled to find a foot hold in film industry and when he failed there television industry and then there also he failed and had a tragic life spending in the reflected light from his younger brother's superstardom.Mahesh babu's father is a huge star back in 70s and early 80s. He introduced both his sons into movies but only one as accepted by people..
People will buy tickets for the first movie out of curiosity and subsequent films they accept or reject purely on the basis of appeal acting talent etc.
There's no point in discussing Bollywood AT ALL. We can live our lives without discussing about it and it won't affect us in anyway. And yet here we are wasting our time on this forum. But somehow people only realise it when the topic is nepotism.š
Abhishek Bachchan is still getting movies, and so does Arjun Kapoor after numerous Flops and rejections. Fardeen Khan, Zayed Khan, Uday Chopra didn't go into oblivion after their first films. They had a career for a decade.
Kareena's career in 2000s was filled with Flops but still somehow she was a top actress of that time. An outsider would have faded away
Recently there was news that YRF is forcing theater owners to play Jayeshbhai Jordaar despite nobody showing up to watch that film otherwise they won't give screening of Prithviraj to them. This is what big production houses do all the time and small films get affected because of it.
Audience is not given options most of the time. They just watch whatever is shown and nepokids get the most visibility. What is a person supposed to do if he wants to watch a movie and it's not playing in his city or his area? Yeah star kids do get rejected but the ones who get accepted are still nepo-kids only because outsiders who get big movies are hardly left in Bollywood.
I'm not asking people to fight against nepotism, but atleast don't downplay it's role in establishing these star-kids. If the topic of nepotism is so tedious, one can just ignore it. But people who also support nepo-kids also indulge in and start such discussions.
