Shatrughan Sinha shared his views on the ongoing nepotism debate over Sushant Singh Rajput's career and reportedly called it 'irrelevant'. He recalled the late actor had a successful career and said that he was never considered an outsider. The actor asserted that Bollywood welcomes stars from everywhere like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, and does not discriminate. Furthermore, he said he wanted people to put a lid on the 'absurd controversy' of nepotism. He shared a few examples of stars such as Ayushmann Khurrana and Sidharth Malhotra, who became successful in Bollywood despite not having any familial connections with the industry. He concluded by saying that he did not know of any other industry in India, which is so welcoming except for Bollywood.
Shatruji feels Karan Johar is being unnecessarily hounded. “Karan Johar is accused of nepotism. But Siddharth Malhotra was not any industry person’s son. Even Alia Bhatt is not Karan’s rishtedaar, so how is it nepotism? I think it’s time to put a lid on this absurd controversy. Because you have Ayushmann Khurrana from the outside being welcomed, and then you have his brother being welcomed. I don’t know of any other industry in India that is so welcoming of outsiders.”
"Only God knows what prompted a young handsome talented superstar like Sushant Singh Rajput to take his life. But why are we unnecessarily dragging this issue ? Suddenly everyone is Sushant’s friend, offering two-bits on him. People whom Sushant had never met are an authority on his mental health. This must stop. Let Sushant rest in peace, ” says Shatrughan Sinha, never known to mince words.
