Exclusive: Divya Dutta Feels Star Kids Have Bigger Pressures, Says Not Nepotism But Favoritism Is Practised In Bollywood

Sushant Singh Rajput’s sudden demise has conjured up a storm in Bollywood. Many actors and actresses have come out in the open to share their stories of struggle while still being divided on the practice of nepotism in the industry. Netizens have been trolling celebrities for harbouring and practicing nepotism in the film industry while seeking justice for the actor's death.

When we spoke to actress Divya Dutta on the topic, she told us, one cannot generalise about a particular industry. “All kinds of people live in the world. One cannot compartmentalise.”

She was candid in revealing that favouritism is prevalent in the industry adding that many outsiders are also favoured. She explains, “we live in an ambitious place and I wouldn’t call it nepotism, I would call it favouritism. There are a lot of outsiders who have been favoured too. Star kids might get an easier break but at the end of the day, they have bigger pressures. We take more time to get the ideal break but I guess we are all on the same level of being judged by the audience and at the end of the day, people decide who they like and who they don’t.”
