Taapsee Pannu may have shared her two cents on the nepotism debate, but she now speaks up and responds to Sonakshi’s statement where Sinha alleged that star kids are kicked out of films, just like outsiders.

Addressing the issue, HT reports Pannu saying, “I feel any actor – star kid or not a star kid – will be losing out on films to someone else. But the criteria is not that the star kid has lost out on the film because that person is an outsider so that person got the film.”
She continues, “As outsiders, definitely we have lost out on films because someone was there recommending and pushing someone’s name who definitely had those contacts in the industry. And those are mostly star kids, right?”

Taapsee explains, “I’m not saying they wouldn’t have lost out on films, but they wouldn’t have lost out on films to outsiders because of the fact that they are outsiders, so that is the difference. But every actor has gone through a situation where they’ve been pushed out of a film. Can be star kids or even outsiders.”
Furthermore, ETimes reports the actress reacting to the controversy surrounding Aryan Khan’s arrest by sharing, “That’s a part and parcel of being a public figure. And, that’s a baggage every public figure’s family also carries, whether they like it or not. You have the positives of enjoying a star status and this is the kind of negative that also comes with it.”

Taapsee adds, “If it’s a family of a big star, you also enjoy the perks of that, right? As far as you’re prepared to face the consequences after going through the trial officially, you know you don’t really have to bother. I think with that kind of stardom level, you’re aware of the scrutiny that’s going to happen.”
“It’s not like ki kahan se aagaya pata nahi chala. I’m sure they know the kind of repercussions of things that are going to happen. With that kind of star status, that person is very well aware of what can happen,” she concludes.
