The
debate
of
nepotism
has
taken
Bollywood
by
storm
off
late
with
many
celebrities
calling
out
the
practice
of
star
kids
being
given
privileged
access
to
work
in
the
film
industry
while
other
who
have
no
familial
ties
to
the
industry
are
often
blocked
out.
Alia
Bhatt,
who
is
now
known
for
her
well
thought
out
opinions
on
different
matters,
shared
what
she
felt
about
the
practice
of
nepotism
in
Bollywood.
Read
what
she
said!
Pinkvilla
reported
that
at
a
recent
conference,
when
Alia
was
asked
what
she
felt
about
nepotism,
she
said,
"Nepotism
exists
in
every
field.
My
thoughts
on
nepotism
don't
come
from
a
negative
place.
If
you
know
somebody
from
a
certain
field
you
will
always
help
them.
But
having
said
that,
I
am
so
in
love
with
acting
and
being
an
actor,
I
would
be
devastated
if
I
never
got
the
opportunity.
So
I
am
in
no
place
to
say
that,
'Oh,
they
don't
know
what
they
are
talking
about'.
Or
'How
can
you
say
that?'"
"Of
course,
it
feels
terrible
if
you
feel
that
someone
is
getting
an
opportunity
because
of
their
family
line.
So
there
is
no
way
to
counter
that
thought.
It
does
exist.
But
having
said
that,
once
you
come
into
the
foray,
the
audience
chooses
you.
So
if
you
are
working,
it's
not
just
because
you're
getting
lucky
every
time.
There
does
go
some
hard
work
into
that.
Quite
a
lot
of
hard
work,"
she
added.
And
concluded,
"So
while
keeping
in
mind
the
sentiment
it
is
also
important
to
not
discard
a
lot
of
hard
work.
Like
I
said,
there
are
no
negative
thoughts.
I
can't
wake
up
and
say
sorry
for
being
born
in
this
family.
But
I
can
definitely
say
that
I
will
work
as
hard
as
possible
to
prove
that
I
deserve
to
be
here."
It
cannot
be
denied
that
Alia
has
grown
as
an
actor
over
just
the
few
years
of
her
career,
and
is
one
of
the
best
actors
in
the
film
industry.
After
winning
all
our
hearts
with
her
role
in
Zoya
Akhtar's
Gully
Boy
recently,
Alia
is
all
set
to
delight
us
again
with
Kalank,
a
Karan
Johar
production
which
is
set
to
hit
the
theatres
on
April
19th,
2019.
