Kriti Sanon reveals who she thinks is responsible for nepotism in Bollywood

Bollywood actor Kriti Sanon, who made her debut alongside Tiger Shroff in Heropanti, has carved a successful career on her own terms. Speaking at a masterclass during the 55th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa, Kriti addressed the much-debated topic of nepotism, offering a balanced perspective on the issue.

Sharing her thoughts, Kriti remarked, “I feel the industry is not so much responsible for nepotism. It’s also the media and the audience. The audiences want to watch what the media is putting about certain star kids. Because the audience is interested in them, the industry feels that since the audience is interested let’s make a movie with them. So I think it’s a circle.” She emphasized that talent remains the deciding factor, adding, “If you are talented, you will get there. If you’re not talented, and if the connect is not there with the audiences you will not get there.”

Reflecting on her journey as an outsider, Kriti shared, “When you don’t belong to a film background, it takes time for you to get there. It takes time for you to get those opportunities you crave for… But after 2-3 films, if you keep working hard and if you are at it, nothing can stop you.”

Kriti, known for hits like Dilwale, Bareilly Ki Barfi, and Luka Chuppi, recently launched her production house, Blue Butterfly Films, debuting with Do Patti alongside Kajol and Shaheer Sheikh. Her journey stands as a testament to resilience and talent overcoming hurdles in Bollywood.
