Nepotism seems to have become a favourite topic of discussion in Bollywood at the present time and now the beautiful actress Sonam Kapoor Ahuja has also expressed her opinion on this matter.
Recently, Sonam attended Arbaaz Khan’s chat show “Pinch” where she was asked to respond to a tweet which was made by a troller. The tweet read, “10 years in the industry yet you don’t know how to act. Pathetic #nepotism.”
Sonam thanks the troller for following her and says that she has been working in Bollywood for the past 11 years now. According to her, either people have misunderstood the meaning of nepotism or they have been using it in this manner to make other people look bad.
She adds that it is thought that nepotism means being a relative of a certain person while in reality, it means to get a job or work through some connection.
She also talks about her father Anil Kapoor and says that he doesn’t come from a well-off family but he has worked very hard for the past 40 years and he has been doing all this for his children and family.
As per her, if she does not take advantage of his father’s work, it will be disrespectful towards his work as every person in this world works for his/her kids.

Sonam and Anil Kapoor worked together in their last release “Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga” and the movie was appreciated by audiences and critics both. Next she will be seen in “Zoya Factor” with Dulquer Salmaan.
What do you think of this answer by Sonam? Let us know.
One of the much-awaited movie of this year produced by Karan Johar ‘Kalank‘ released today starring Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapoor and Kunal Khemmu directed by Abhishek Verma. The fans were going gaga over the star-studded cast with that Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt reuniting after 20 years.
The movie was creating a lot of buzzes after the trailer was released and the periodic drama finally hit the theatres and is receiving a mixed review from the audience.
Kalank is a periodic drama set in 1940 during the partition of India and Pakistan the story revolves around the complex love story of Zafar and Roop. Varun Dhawan plays the character of Zafar and Alia plays the character of Roop.
Everyone is praising the marvellous acting of Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt as the duo have already been paired together before but this is claimed to be the finest work of the duo. Madhuri Dixit Nene is said to be blessed the audience with her phenomenal acting. Each and every star cast plays a pivotal role in the periodic drama directed by Abhishek Verma.
The music is one of the best part of the movie. The story is weak easily predictable what’s going to be next, the movie was 2 hrs 48 mins long which can get you bored. Each and every actor did justice to their particular character. The second half of the movie is more interesting than the first part.
The star-studded movie failed to create an impact on the audience. It didn’t leave up to the hype which was created through the promotions and trailer.
We are going to give two stars for the period drama. Spoiler alert! Sonakshi and Sanjay Dutt have a cameo in the film.
Movie critic Taran Adarsh also reviewed the movie –
#OneWordReview…#Kalank: DISAPPOINTING.
Rating:
Doesn’t live up to the expectations… Writing, music, length play spoilsport… Few dramatic portions work… Second half engaging in parts… Good climax… Varun, Alia, Madhuri, Aditya, Kunal Kemmu top notch. #KalankReviewpic.twitter.com/rJgyNi3Ain
#Kalank Review : Headache Guranteed.. So instead of buying popcorn.. Buy Amrutanjan or Zandu Balm.. Hackneyed Plot.. Worse acting.. @aliaa08 Constipated… @MadhuriDixit Old Haggered… @duttsanjay Buffoon… @Varun_dvn only Body No Soul… @sonakshisinha Khaaaaamoooosshhhhhhhhh
#Kalank Review from UAE Censor Board. It ought to be watched for multiple reasons: the electrifying chemistry between its lead actors, the strong dramatic content, the scintillating musical score, the violent streak in the narrative and of course. Sure Shot SUPERHIT. pic.twitter.com/tUsq1EMm26
#Kalank : First Half of the film ends and I am disappointed hands down in first half. Slow and stretched. Though story looks exiciting and 2nd half may offer more. But that bull fight scene, who says its #DharmaProductions movie, so bad visual effects. Hope 2nd half is good.
Am leaving #kalank right now .. it's a torture .. SONAKSHI kidhar Hain no role .. Aditya wasted .. only varun overacting maa ka badla .. nakli PYAAR with Alia .. gaane khatam hi nahin hote. DISASTER #kalankreview
OMG!!!! thanks sir for your review and now I have cancelled my plan to watch this movie and now I can save my money and watch some sensible and good movie…#KalankReview …Was not expecting only one star but it was like BADA PACKET CHOTA DHAMAKA…. https://t.co/L5pzqEfYGP
The Indian cricket team for the biggest tournament of cricket, i.e., World Cup 2019 has been announced and many people were left in a state of shock when they came to know that wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant has been left out. The Indian selectors decided to go with experienced Dinesh Karthik rather than giving chance to a 21 years old youngster.
A number of former cricketers have also expressed surprise over this move of the selectors as Rishabh was supposed to play even if Dhoni plays as the former could have given strength to the middle order by batting at number 4 while most probably, Dinesh will play only if Dhoni is injured or rested.
Rishabh has performed well with bat against the Australians and he does have the capability of scoring runs at a faster pace but as per the sources, he lost the battle against Dinesh because of his wicket-keeping skills. It is being said that almost every selector wanted Rishabh in the team because of his batting skills but they were not convinced of him being able to keep the wickets properly.
The social media is flooded with reactions of cricket lovers on this issue but meme makers didn’t waste time and started coming up with hilarious gags and jokes on this matter. Here are some of the selected reactions:
Kangana Ranaut was recently making headlines for lashing out on Alia Bhatt criticising her work in Gully Boy, for not supporting Manikarnika and also Alia and her boyfriend Ranbir for not sharing their opinions on politics.
Actor Randeep Hooda recently came out to support her Highway co-star Alia for not letting the negativity and the comments affect her and her work.
Randeep didn’t take any names but his tweet perhaps seemed like it was for Kangana Ranaut who was frequently taking a dig on Alia Bhatt. He also acknowledged them as ‘an occasional actor and chronic victims’.
Dearest @aliaa08 I’m so glad you are not letting the opinions of very occasional actors and chronic victims affect you and your work .. kudos to you for your continued efforts to outdo yourself
Kangana’s sister Rangoli who didn’t sit back after Hooda tweeted and she accused Randeep of harassing Kangana during the shoot of Ungli. She wrote a series of tweets and hit the low taking the argument to the next level.

Alia baby ko bachane ko nepotism gang ki khud ki himmat nahin toh tujhko aage kiya, I know during film Ungli what u did, kitna harass kiya tune Kangana ko aur kitna bada chatukar hai tu Karan Johar ka….(contd) @RandeepHooda
(Contd)…..magar phir bhi tera kuch nahin hua, at least people like Alia are successful because of chamchagiri, bhai tu to permanent failure hai @RandeepHooda
Lok Sabha elections 2019 is taking place in India and almost every Bollywood celebrity is requesting people to cast their vote as it is not only their right but also their duty. One such Bollywood celeb is Alia Bhatt’s mother and actress Soni Razdan who rubbed the social media users the wrong way when she shared photo of a person named Junaid and asked them to remember him while voting as he lost his life because he was a Muslim.
However, this was completely false as the courts had already said that Junaid lost his life due to the fight which took place because of an argument related to seat sharing in train. Even Kangana Ranaut’s sister Rangoli Chandel slammed her for spreading fake news.
However later, she again urged voters to cast their vote but the social media users didn’t like it as Soni herself is a British citizen and doesn’t have the right to vote in India. She tweeted,
“Urging people to vote against hate has nothing to do with citizenship and everything to do with being a human being. We are all human beings first and citizens of the world we live in. Secularism and democratic principles are values and it’s those that I stand for. #VoteOutHate”

People trolled her for this tweet and one user said that she has no right to preach as she is a British citizen. The tweet read,
“Get lost British citizen …u have no place in India to preach.”
Soni was in no mood to bear the brunt of trolling and she gave it back to the hater with a strong reply,
“I do actually. My father is Indian. Lived in India since I was 3 months old. Pay taxes. Hold an Overseas Citizen of India card. If my hard earned income is good enough to be used to better this nation then I have a right to voice my opinions too. #VoteOutHate”

“Avengers: Endgame” is one of the most awaited movies of the year and the franchise has a global fan base which is very eager to watch the final battle between Thanos and Avengers.
The flick is going to release on 24th April in Australia and on 26th April in USA and India; however, the makers have received a big blow as important and major scenes of the film have been leaked online.
This is definitely one of the biggest shocks for the Marvel Studios and Disney as this movie will feature the final battle between Avengers and their biggest enemy Thanos.
Nevertheless, the good part is that fans are showing their support to the makers and promising that they will not spread any clip or footage if they receive it on social media networks. If the reports are to be believed, it is being said that the footage which has been leaked online contains some very important scenes of the movie.
While there has been no response from the Marvel Studios and Disney, the co-director of the film Joe Russo has said that it is a result of the culture that wants everything now and it’s getting depleted with every passing moment.
He has requested the fans to visit the theatres on the opening weekend as he is quite sure that the spoilers will hit online once the movie gets released.
We also feel that true fans will never promote such illegal acts and will watch the flick in cinema halls only.
