Last year Karan Johar was accused of Nepotism by Kangana Ranaut and now Aproova Mehta shares his thoughts on the whole issue.
He said, A bankers child becomes a banker, jewellers child become a jeweller, and if some actors child becomes an actor, what is wrong with that? On the other hand, there are so many actors, who are not from the industry, such as Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, Shah Rukh Khan, the list is endless. They all are doing so well. If you do good work in the industry, youll definitely get the desired results

Films like Drive, Kesari, Kalank, Student of The Year 2, Good News, Brahmastra and there are few untitled projects as well
