The
untimely
demise
of
young
and
talented
Bollywood
actor
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
reignited
the
nepotism
debate
in
the
entertainment
industry.
In
hopes
to
fight
nepotism,
last
month,
the
late
actor's
brother-in-law
Vishal
Kirti
had
announced
the
launch
of
Nepometer.

Nepometer
is
a
platform
where
Bollywood
movies
and
TV
shows
will
be
judged
and
rated
based
on
its
crew
members
being
independent
or
nepotistic.
The
app
is
set
to
weigh
a
film
in
five
categories-
producer,
lead
artists,
supporting
artists,
director
and
writer.
Last
week,
Vishal
introduced
the
app
on
Twitter
and
wrote,
"Created
by
my
brother
@mayureshkrishnain
the
memory
of
my
brother
in
law
@itsSSR." The
post
he
re-tweeted
read,
"Fight
Bollywood
Nepotism
with
information.
We
will
provide
rating
for
movies
based
on
how
nepotistic
or
independent
movie
crew
is.
If
the
#nepometer
is
high,
then
it's
time
to
#boycottbollywoodnepotism
#fightnepotism."

The
Nepometer
App
Is
Yet
To
Be
Released
While
sharing
the
aim
of
the
app,
Nepometer's
first
post
(on
which
platform?)
read,
"The
goal
of
this
app
is
to
provide
you
a
percentage
meter
of
how
nepotistic
or
independent
upcoming
movies
are
and
send
you
notification
to
watch
more
independent
movies.
If
the
nepometer
is
high,
then
it's
time
to
#boycottbollywoodnepotism
#boycottbollywood
To
make
this
successful
we
need
your
support
