Real waste of Talent, Creativity, Opportunity, Diversity and what not. I can Tell a million faults with Nepotism. Just imagine if the same story would have been played by new star it could have been a game changer. Let me give a simple examples : Just compare if Rahul would have been our Prime Minister would you be seeing similar reforms in Politics and Economy ? It does take some time to adjust with new people but what Zoya did is disgusting. Now I don't to watch Stupid Zoya movies. Crazy women.

Im glad nepotism is well understood these days. A decade back, the value of individuals was determined by their lineage, bank balance, parent's profession and social status. People were literally worshipped for their lineage. It's refreshing to finally see this conversation happening at this scale.

There is a big difference between Hollywood and Bollywood when it comes to nepotism. In Hollywood, star kids go under radar when they first enter the industry. Usually starting on small roles and many times you wouldn't know those actors are related to a famous parent until you dig deep into it. In bollywood star kids get the lead roles from get go and there nepotism aspect is used extensively to sell the movie.

[@wanderlust1334]

No they do know but thing is, even if u r a star kid you HAVE to give ACTUAL auditions n be selected through the screen tests unlike bolly star kids for whom, audition is just a formality. And in Hollywood u thrive in the limelight purely based on ur talent in films unlike bolly where ppl like sonam,janhvi,khushi,ananya survive in the industry with some money

In Bollywood its a lot more evident. People like Mahesh Bhatt engage most aspiring women into sex trade and drug rackets while their own less-than-talented daughters get chances after chances to perfect their craft. I think Indian viewers should make the effort to give deserving kids a chance. If we have now recognized the Gandhi family's nepotism, why not recognize the Bhatts and Kapoors and Johars make billions off of Indian viewers while feeding them absolute garbage.

In today’s Bollywood, nepotism wins. I’ve just seen the archies which didn’t do anything for me but the two guys who stood out for me are Vedang Raina and Mihir Ahuja. They are the ones to watch out for. But I doubt if they’ll get their due. Vedang is definitely the Hindi movie “hero” material. He’s smart, sassy and has the swag. IMO, Khusi Kapoor is a little better but Suhana Khan and Agastya Nanda doesn’t know A of acting! Totally bland and expressionless.

There is a lot of brotherhood in that industry...that is why they are so close to the culture...just see mrunal thakur..how she has made a place in south...they have nepotism but they also accept and support each other...in bollywood there is a trend of not allowing right talent to come up...But the things are changing now...tripti dimri I think topped the imdb list putting suhana, khushi way behind

Charlie Chaplin was not a nepo kid. His parents were small time artists in vaudeville theatre. They separated when he was a toddler and his mom went insane when he was barely 7 and he hardly attended school. He literally grew up on the streets and landed a part in a play along with his elder brother when he was 11. He struggled very very hard and rose only because of his talent and genius. Those in the above film are certainly nepo kids as they’ve landed a part in the film only bec of their parents

This practice was carried out for all the other positions in the company, like operating each machine or such as bricklaying. This was appreciated by all employees, seeing that the son was not given special treatment. After university, this experience was useful in all my employment, having learned the "value of all work". My father had done the same when he first started working. In Italy we also find something as bad, which is the "recommendation" of a progeny or a friend, meaning that the position is given to someone unknown purely based on friendship or political affiliation. Again, in Italy there is a saying ..... "the first generation creates, the second generation maintains, while the third generation destroys what has been handed over to them" .......

I automatically agree whatever Palki says. This time too exactly my thoughts. Nothing give more satisfaction than the essence of your sweat when you are self made.

Dear Palki mam, I am consistently trying to follow your news presentation everyday,my hidden interest in IR has awakened. I truly wish to read IR from the basics. Can you please suggest some books on foundations of IR?

Outside India, celebrities lead normal life. You can see them in public places, talk with them like normal individuals, but respect their privacy. Personally, I have chatted with cricketers from all countries, fim personalities from 11 countries totalling 67, princes, presidents relatives, and king's relatives from 27 countries. Nepotism can be rampant in some of these cases, but competition is their among them, and not at the cost of suppression of any talents.

[@RohitSharma-rl9zh]

Problem in nepotism is NOT about getting opportunities because of influence from your forefathers. The real problem is deliberately killing opportunities for those ones who has no connection or forefathers(non nepotistic ones)trying hard to be on their own without anyones support. Text book examples is SSR. He was working hard when he knew he has no one which is absolutely fine but when film lobbies(KJ and others) were deliberately isolating him so he🎉 no more gets opportunities is THE REAL NEPOTISM issue we need to talk about and highlight. That js the real issue NO ONE able to talk through or bring up unfortunately.

[@amka1313]

Nepotism is everywhere in different forms, that shouldn’t be supported by anyone. Now in this era people understand more clearly and oppose , sign of awareness.

[@priyanshisingh9329]

we should start opposing it in every sector rather than giving a defence to it saying it's prevelant in all sectors. thanks for bringing this up in such a detailed manner but I disagree with your closing comments, there might be talent better than George Clooney and Farhan Akhtar if at all given a fair opportunity

[@letsmakemistakestogether.1094]

Favouratism should not have a place in religious,political ,educational institutes or institutions where it could compromise the sanctity of a state. But i dont see any harm done in personnel marketing ,promoting her own business. The only harm is her risking her own business when she hires some one unqualified through favouritsm and failing her business targets. If they , by chance turns out to be good, then her marketing strategy will be a success.

[@Mj-bs9wg]

To stop nepotism the only way is to not watch their movies, interviews or any kind of shows they are cast on. If they are in the cast, just don't watch the movie even if it is good. That's the only solution. Slowly other talented individuals can get a chance and nepotism will be gone for sure as cinemas will face huge losses. The question to ask is........Can the people do that ???? Hmmmm!!! I doubt that. If people can't do that...... then I would suggest not to blame nepotism and make it a subject to debate or talk about. At least let someone make a living.

[@harshadborgaonkar4539]

Great analysis with eloquence ❤

[@misoj2897]

She makes sense but just because something is happening through ages, doesn't mean it should continue. People are buying tickets to enjoy those 2-3 hrs, our money is not for crappy acting. Its a relief that now we can call out them.

[@rationalthinker2724]

In kannada there is a proverb “ hadta hadta raaga “ .. meaning if you give so much privilege and many chances even a mediocre will pick that art !! Nepo mafia is doing that exactly!!

It was a great explation yet again from my beautiful teacher palki Sharma well done 💕💞💕💞

[@eddieamorgan]

Nepotism can be analogously compared to cussing, especially with close ones; while it may be challenging to avoid entirely, excessive indulgence in it is detrimental to everyone involved. Much like the addition of Indian spices to a meal, a moderate amount is acceptable and keeps everybody on edge, but an excess of nepotism, like an overdose of spices, can spoil the overall experience for everyone.

[@WandaVision19]

Nepotism can help you to land on a platform but your talent will help you to prosper further 😊

[@geogvivekg]

You explained it so well. Great view in my view🙂

[@aspirer47]

I m genuinely surprised by the ppl of my country who has time debating about such cringe content. Like I don't find those debates and discussions when a real good film comes out.

[@dheeraj009.1]

True and at last the good films go underrated

[@dhilanshah809]

Pallavi, great coverage as always, the one point you missed is someone gets 2-3 chances due to nepotism and that creates a name recognition which eventually helps even undeserving get some roles. Which in turn gives them enough chances to get better. Ex. Bobby Deol. That opportunity is missing for the deserving outsiders.

[@sureshsinha5427]

And hence we love you ❤! Just the facts thru realistic prism with a beautiful smile!

[@gumdrop465]

Nepotism is prevalent in Bollywood and even our legal system. I don't like the concept of reservation as well. Bollywood have already lost the charm. I think the last movie I watched in a theatre was Kantara. I have OTT platforms but series are also psuedo vulgar and soft porn. I prefer to watch Disney series or Pakistani series because they are less explicit. Reservation too makes everything look unequal and less appealing specially govt colleges or jobs. I didn't even think about getting into a govt job or college because I knew I will not get it.

[@baromuni2992]

in India promoter of gutka can become ambassador of Swatch Bharat Abhiyan and still people follows Churuk Khan, Aksha-y and Aj@y. *Am!tabh Bhachha and Alia Bhat are farmers by profession so these people doesn't need to pay taxes also.* *Indian Govt takes taxes only from the middle income people. This is the beauty of demoncrazy*

[@shashankagtey4983]

So True!! Great job!

[@deepthijose2169]

Neither people nor the media who cry foul over nepotism seem to get enough of the star kids. The industry alone is not responsible.

[@richardmmasliah3130]

You’re the indisputable BEST of the absolute BEST Ms. Palki Sharma 🥳🥳🥳 Thanks for the lesson on Nepotism 🙏🏻

[@scottallan5047]

South Africa is a primary example of nepotism in our political sphere.. It is referred to as cadre deployment. It was acknowledged as such by our chief justice. It involves the ruling party (ANC) placing their party members in every aspect of South African public life. These people used their connections to promote family contacts in the private sector for government contracts and tenders. It has taken the ANC 30 years to destroy South Africa in the name of Affirmative Action and redistribution. It is a shining example of nepotism versus meritocracy. (I grew up in in Durban. It has the biggest Indian population outside of the Indian subcontinent. It is also a reflection of the Indian Packistanian divide with approximately a 60% hindu, Tamil Christian and 40% muslim. But India and Pakistan can learn from this as they coexist peacefully. Perhaps lessons can be learnt as there is too much else going on to be bothered by a religious divide. Also a very sophisticated population and jealously viewed by the black population. English is also m the spoken language. Food for thought.)

[@orientalguy9462]

Do you really think religion divides people? No, if someone says only my views are true and other's views are false and they(others) should be damned for their false views, this is inherently a supermascist stance and we very well know that from supermacism only comes hatred or dislike towards others.

[@amulyamalhi]

That was a very Insightful Video. Nepotism is the harsh reality of current times. Even religious institutions are not immune to this concept!

[@ShwetzRockin]

Very well explained Palki Sharma Ji... At the end of the day its the connections which gives the opportunities.

[@ferrumpugnus3708]

Best way to described how bad nepotism is in Bollywood bu just saying two names Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor.

[@kannantm2731]

if a society has to succeed, nepotism and cronyism should be effectively controlled by law and order. In the case of democracies this has got well framed, and unless its eleminated, things will only go from good to bad to worse.

[@sampatkalyan3103]

This is stupid. So now your business and your wealth is not to be passed to your son or what.

[@MegaWazeem]

Not only Bollywood. Jay Sha is one such example for nepotism.

[@ananyav1896]

In a world where someone can easily get rejected just because of, say, their looks, nepotism might push them forward to get an opportunity, so their talent will show and finally, they'll be appreciated.

[@dheeraj009.1]

😂 this same nepotism hungama happens in south also

[@ananyav1896]
