17 Jun 2020

The death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput has again given rise to the existing nepotism debate in the film industry. Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, in fact, has opted to speak in favour as netizens are rallying against Karan Johar and everyone else.Varma took to Twitter to speak in support ofKaran Joharwho has been criticized for supporting star kids. Blaming @karanjohar for what happened is ridiculous and just shows lack of understanding of how film industry works ..Even assuming Karan had a problem with Sushant its his choice of who he wants to work with,like its any film makers choice about who they want to work with, he wrote.Just want to say this to the ignorant social lynch mob that @karanjohar is a bigger victim in this context compared to their ill-perceived and suddenly discovered victim Sushant, he further tweeted.In his further tweets, he explained how nepotism exists in every field but theres no backlash over it. How politicians like Mulayam, Uddhav etc give sons, relatives first preference ,Like how Dhirubhai will give all his monies to Mukesh ,Anil ,Like how all families will give their own families first preference similarly Bollywood families do same ..So wheres nepotism not there?Here is everything he said:How politicians like Mulayam,Uddhav etc give sons, relatives first preference ,Like how Dhirubhai will give all his monies to Mukesh ,Anil ,Like how all families will give their own families first preference similarly Bollywood families do same ..So wheres nepotism not there ? Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) Blaming If Sushant after 12 yrs of fame and money took his life becos he was made to feel like an outsider then a 100 actors suicides per day will be justified who couldnt reach anywhere near Sushant. If u cant b happy with what u have u will never be happy with whatever u have.Period! Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) Also all insiders of Bollywood were sometimes outsiders starting from No matter how many supposedly conspired to drive Sushant out (For what reason I cant fathom when he can make money for them ) there were umpteen others wanting to work with him. ..But like it was his choice not to do with them,its the others choice not to work with him Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) Bollywood is hard place becos people want to jump to grab stars and higher they jump the harder they are likely to fall .Sushant atleast grabbed the moon , but what about umpteen others who dint take off from ground ..Are they supposed to kill themselves blaming the universe? Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) And for all the sound being made on social media about the super talented guy being sidelined the truth is its the people who are watching the other actors more than sushant and And if Sushant hung on ,then in about 15 or 20 years he would have become an insider when hes launching his own son and some outsider Prashant would have blamed him like how everyone now is blaming Theres no such thing as insiders and outsiders and its only audience who decide who they like and dont ..Film families however big they are can never have power to influence the audience and also dont forget that Of the people who are venomously targeting Nepotism spoken in a negative context is a joke because entire society is based on only a family loving concept ..Should Will any of the umpteen And for all the hue and cry about the super talent being suppressed I will take a bet that 48 hours before now for many many months there wasnt a single social media comment demanding to see Sushant from all the millions who are now blaming Talent is never an absolute but merely a perception based on various factors like different individuals,critics,box office etc and my proof is that two days before no one in the social media was crying hoarse why Sushant is not bigger than Ranveer Singh and Ranbir Kapoor Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin)
