Alia Bhatt has been dragged once again into the nepotism debate and has recently been bashed alongside Salman Khan and Karan Johar by angry fans of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Reports have been doing the rounds that Sushant was suffering from depression and was banned by some producers which played a part in the actor taking the extreme step of ending his life.
Alia’s mother and actress Soni Razdan has now responded to her daughter getting trolled with a Twitter saying that those who battling against nepotism will they tomorrow refuse their kids if they want to enter the film industry?
Soni wrote, “The expectation that people have because of whose son or daughter you are is much more. Those who r ranting about nepotism today and who have made it on their own will also have kids one day. And what if they want to join the industry? Will they stop them from doing so?”

But he's been an integral part of my best work because he is talented, disciplined, hardworking and shares similar values as me. Not just because he's my son.

Moment you use your talent and hard work as your only tools a lot of the filth that you create and later suffer from will go. Aspiration is a disease as much as it is a boon. Stop it from making you sick. Use it to grow as an artist.

Her post came as a response to filmmaker Hansal Mehta's series of tweets saying that while stars kids will get a foot in the door due to their parents it’s their talent that should earn them a place in the industry and not airport looks, gossip or gym looks.
Not just Alia some farfetched theories have even named the actress’ father Mahesh Bhatt to have played a part in the actor’s tragic demise.
