Apne bachchon ko apne business mein siraf bollywood waale dalte hain kya?
Mittals, Reliance, even politicians.
Ek chhota sa kiryane ki dukan waala bhi chahta ki uska beta uski dukan par baithe ya achcha kare. Par zaruri toh nahi ki uske bete ko uski success mile agar nazdeek ek super store ho. Why do people demean other peoples struggles without understanding? Struggles acknowledge karo aage bado.
Yaar.... people often use this argument...In season 14 Salman had said this same Kirane ki dukaan argument...and I don't agree with it at all..
There’s a huge difference between inheritance and nepotism.
When a shopkeeper’s son takes over the family shop, that’s inheritance - he’s continuing a business that already belongs to his family. But in industries like Bollywood or music, it’s not about “passing down” something you own , it’s about getting access to opportunities that belong to an open field meant for everyone.
If an actor, director, or musician gets their first project not because of merit or auditions, but because of who their parents know, that’s not inheritance ,that’s privileged access. And that privilege often shuts doors for outsiders who don’t have the same network.
No one denies that insiders also work hard, but let’s not pretend the starting line is the same. One gets a launch, the other gets a hundred rejections before anyone even hears them out. That’s what nepotism is about ... Networks and sometimes unfair access, not effort.
