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..
Thereās a huge difference between inheritance and nepotism.
When a shopkeeperās son takes over the family shop, thatās inheritance - heās continuing a business that already belongs to his family. But in industries like Bollywood or music, itās not about āpassing downā something you own , itās 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, thatās not inheritance ,thatās privileged access. And that privilege often shuts doors for outsiders who donāt have the same network.
No one denies that insiders also work hard, but letās not pretend the starting line is the same. One gets a launch, the other gets a hundred rejections before anyone even hears them out. Thatās what nepotism is about ... Networks and sometimes unfair access, not effort.
