Nepotism also creates a sense of security in BW. It helps to filter out a lot of the negative OUTSIDE jealous energy!

Do you know SRK is technically an outsider, but not his kids? smiley4


Huh? 🤯

I’m sorry but this is an even worst argument than Varun’s pencil box analogy.

Bollywood as an entertainment industry doesn’t just belong to a certain class or group of people where they have to protect themselves from the big bad people of the outside. Be fair and honest about the process of casting and hiring and you won’t have any negative energy.

Do you really think insiders themselves don’t go after each other and try to steal roles, and sometimes succeed? Who takes care of the negative energy and jealousy of insiders?

Arjun wanted Shahid kicked out of Kabir Singh.

Ranbir got Ranveer kicked out of Bombay Velvet.

Alia got Janhvi kicked out of Kalank.

I’m sure there are plenty of other examples out there that we don’t know about.

Like some others, I favour the word "privileged" over "nepo"... it has a wider range. Being privileged isn't something bad or negative as such, however, it becomes bad and negative if the privileged person misuses the privilege or if a person fakes something to get into a privileged position.

Who were the kids in The Archies? They were Khans, Kapoors and Bachchans isn't it? smiley4

After lockdown, it looks like there is a whole stock of nepokids that everyone is trying to sell but nobody's buying smiley36

Sara, Jhanvi, Ananya were and are bad actors till date but can't blame them alone as even the movies being released these days are snooze fests.

Movies they were launched in are in no way excellent in terms of the story that any outsider would turn them into a blockbuster.

Out of the ones mentioned, Shraddha, Sonakshi and Varun have still done better than the ones today. I liked Sonakshi in Heeramandi.

Is Zoya really talented? Or she’s just been lucky with good artists and good stories?

Could it be a little of both? smiley4

Take Ananya Panday, for example. After countless chances, she delivers one credible performance, and suddenly, she's being praised to the skies. Meanwhile, actual talent struggles for a fraction of that recognition.

Nepo or Not, Chunky's daughter (Ananya) is loved by millions! smiley4

Liked Sara in Kedarnath, Janhvi in Dhadak and Ananya in Gehraiyaan. smiley27

Yes. I don’t get your point though.

Haven't seen these movies except for Gehraiyaan where Ananya was pretty bad.
