It's just so tiresome and cliché, this whole debate about doctor's kids wanting to be doctors, cricketer's kids wanting to play cricket, and film stars' children aspiring to follow in their footsteps. It has been discussed a hundred times before, and yet it keeps coming up. Two wrongs do not make a right and even in medicine, nepotism is a big deal, but the sons and daughters still have to go through the whole education grind to make it. In the film industry, especially in India, you don't need education or talent to make it if you have the right last name. It is extremely unfair and anyone who defends it I believe never went through the trauma of a privileged kid taking away your seat just because s/he had the right last name. The likes of Deols would never experience it and hence, the arrogance.
Honestly, I don't have the patience to sit through the whole episode, so I'll just skip this and wait for the next guests.
