Kareena Kapoor Khan: The industry is a ruthless place

When Kangana Ranaut made a fiery remark on Karan Johar being the 'Flag bearer of Nepotism', who knew it would go on to become one of the most debatable topic of Bollywood? The topic has been making headlines ever since and a lot of stars have been vocal about their opinions on nepotism but Kareena Kapoor Khan had yet to talk about it. Bebo, who is a star kid herself and also happens to be Karan's bestie, came to his rescue and finally opened up about the subject.
"A lot of things seem out of context. Doesn't nepotism exist in every field? But nobody addresses that. In business families, the son takes over the business. A politician's son takes over his place. These are not considered nepotism but in the industry, it makes for a nice read. Also, not many star kids have achieved what their parents have. So I don't understand why people are going on about it,” asserted the actress.
She continued, "Basically, the industry is a ruthless place. It's about talent and survival of the fittest. Otherwise, a lot of star kids would've been No. 1 stars in our country. If there's Ranbir Kapoor, there's also Ranveer Singh who's not from the industry. So honestly, nepotism is overrated. More than in business, more than in politics, in the industry it's your hard work and talent that will take you far. That's exactly the reason Kangana Ranaut is considered such a great actress. And she's not from the industry. If there's Alia Bhatt, there's also Kangana. It's not only about star-kids."
