When Alia Bhatt broke silence on Nepotism in Bollywood

Being a celebrity child is not a matter of joke, especially in today’s society, when many people assume that celebrities have it easy in life and receive whatever they desire. Consequently, they have been slammed by the public, who point out that they have not had the same difficulties as others.

Meanwhile, Alia Bhatt broke silence on nepotism in Bollywood. “Of late, I have realised that there is no need to defend the nepotistic nature of the industry because it does exist. The reason why it has become an emotional debate is that it is difficult for those who don’t get a chance,” Alia Bhatt once told TOI.

Alia Bhatt said, “If I were on the other side, I would be heartbroken. I may have felt the same way. Yes, it does exist everywhere, but this is the only business where there are no fixed funds. You need to be at the right place at the right time.”

“For instance, if you want to be a doctor, you study, give your examination and get a job. In the film business, you can do whatever you want, but there has to be that X-factor that people talk about. There are so many people who come from nowhere and make it big purely based on their presence and what they bring to the screen,” she added.
