Kapur’s tweet arrives as a reaction to Balki’s get on nepotism in Bollywood.

“The query is do they (star young ones) have an unfair or larger advantage? Of course, there are execs and negatives. But I’d request one particular easy question:?Locate me a superior actor than Alia (Bhatt) or Ranbir (Kapoor), and we’ll argue. It’s unfair on these couple individuals who’re probably some of the finest actors,” R Balki told Hindustan Situations in an job interview.
