Bollywood struggles and fair opportunities

 

Addressing the controversial topic of nepotism, Vineet said he doesn’t believe in targeting individuals who come from influential film families. He highlighted Alia Bhatt, daughter of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, as an example. “She’s fantastic,” Vineet admitted, acknowledging her acting prowess and hard work. However, he also remarked on the stark contrast between his journey and those born into the industry. “I’ve been struggling since the time Alia Bhatt was in Mahesh Bhatt’s lap,” he said, humorously underscoring his long and arduous path to recognition.

 

Overcoming challenges as an outsider in bollywood

Despite the challenges, he persevered, eventually earning acclaim for his gritty performances. “The path for outsiders is filled with roadblocks, but you learn, you adapt, and you keep going,” he said.

 

Talent should be the deciding factor

 

While Vineet refrained from blaming star kids for their privileges, he advocated for more inclusivity in the industry. “Talent should be the ultimate deciding factor,” he said, emphasizing the need for a level playing field.
