Nepotism in Bollywood

Nowday, Nepotism is in the ears of every person. It is basically giving favoritism to their own relatives in various fields like business, politics, entertainment, sports, religion and many other activities.

In bollywood, after sushant Rajput death nepotism has become a hot topic for debate. Recently, bollywood actress Kanga Ranaut appeared on a channel where she spoke about the culture of nepotism prevailing from earlier time that resulted into Sushant Rajput’s death. She mentions that in this industry there must be godfather behind every actor otherwise their survival is difficult. After Sushant Singh shocking suicide nepotism is highlighted in bollywood. Famous director Karan Johar was called the flag bearer of nepotism on his famous talk show ‘koffee with Karan’ by actress Kanga Ranaut. Many celebs in this industry feel that it’s unfair on the outsiders who are genuinely talented and more deserving. But due to nepotism they left behind. It is very difficult for outsiders to work in bollywood but there are also some success stories like Kanga Renaut, Katrina Kaif, and Sonu Sood who have made it their own. Star kids are getting better launch pads but that can’t stop outsiders from creating their base in the industry.

But when we talk about nepotism it is in each and every profession. For example. A lawyer’s son will have easy access to being a lawyer by virtue of growing in that environment. By the same logic, even an actor kid will have that advantage.Not that star kids are not talented but they get opportunities far easier, projects far bigger and high budget for their films. Nepotism is never ending topic in bollywood that is over discussed concept

Why Mental Health Of Actors From a Non-Filmy Background is Still a Taboo

The sad demise of Kai Po Che actor Sushant Singh Rajput sent shockwaves to the entire world. God alone knows the real reason behind such a drastic and brave step taken by Sushant to depart from the world into eternal peace.

Now, Rajput being from a non-filmy background created a lot of stir in the film industry. As everyone is well acquainted with the knowledge of Bollywood star kids and nepotism, a synonym connected to a certain privilege, most succumb to success easily deny. 

The actor was often bullied and trolled by the Bollywood’s most successful and popular bandwagon including well-established directors and mainly actress student Of The Year starlet Alia Bhatt for nearly belittling and falling short of all empathy for the actor.

It seemed as if the needles were straight targeted towards Sushant because of his background. 

However, the recent developments suggest that the actor was undergoing a mental health treatment for the past 6-months which the industry was unaware. An hour before he passed away, two recent calls made to his rumoured girlfriend Rhea went unanswered. 

Director Karan Johar and Alia Bhatt were called out for bullying the actor and is being touted as the main cause for his recent developments of feeling indifferent. In one of the eps of Coffee With Karan, Alia made a rude reference to Sushant, saying ”Who Sushant”, answering to one of the rapid-fire rounds. 

While so much has happened. It was Kangana Ranaut who spoke the reality of filmy world plastered by invisible crudeness. May Sushant rest in peace and let us all pray for his soul to be in a better place.
