Ananya Panday shared a picture of herself, along with Suhana Khan and Shanaya Kapoor recently. I know what you’re thinking –where’s the problem in that? You’re right, there isn’t. But it became a problem when IIFA, one of the most prestigious Indian Cinematic awards, posted it on Twitter and captioned it, ‘The next generation of divas is ready to take on the world!’

As soon as this happened, twitterati lashed out at IIFA, and with good reason. Ananya Panday (Chunky Panday’s daughter) only has one film in her kitty until now, i.e, Student Of The Year 2. On the other hand, Suhana Khan (Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter) has already faced backlash for appearing on the cover of Vogue’s August 2018 issue; and Shanaya Kapoor (Sanjay Kapoor’s daughter) hasn’t even stepped foot in B-town yet. This is why people are questioning the tag bestowed upon them.

To be honest, I’m not even surprised by the blatant display of nepotism in Bollywood now. These celebrity kids were basically given the title of the ‘future of Bollywood’ without even considering the talent that is already present and doesn’t get due credit, or the new non-Bollywood faces we might see.
What are your thoughts?
