Suniel Shetty feels Abhishek Bachchan, Esha Deol and Bobby Deol are the ‘real star-kids’: ‘They are the most well behaved’ | Hindi Movie News – Times of India

Suniel Shetty opens up about the misconception about star kids that people have. According to him, except for a few, most of the star-kids are well behaved.
In a recent podcast interview, Suniel said that people need to understand that one or two of them are not the entire industry. Citing examples of star kids like Abhishek Bachchan, Bobby Deol and Esha Deol, Shetty pointed out that most of them are very well behaved. According to him, those are the ones we should say star kids.

Suniel also emphasized on the fact that stardom is often inherited through legacy, citing examples such as Yash Chopra and Shashi Kapoor. Shetty added that they are very conscious about everything because they know they are public figures and they know that they have to be responsible.

In an earlier interview with ETimes in 2020, Suniel opened up about his views on nepotism in Bollywood. He said, “This whole talk about nepotism hurts. It is something that is there in every field. Is my son or daughter not allowed to dream of becoming an actor just because their father is an actor? Does that mean the dream of that child needs to be squashed? An industrialist’s son dreams of taking over the business after his father. Is that dream wrong? A kid sees all the love their parents received from their fans. Is it wrong for them to want the same for themselves? People run to the best school and try all their influences to get their child admission. Is that wrong too? I don’t know where this is coming from.”
He added, “I run an online hunt for talent. There are two lakh seventy thousand kids on that platform for whom I am trying to get work. I ask everybody to please give them an opportunity. If two of my kids are trying to get work, there are two lakh people for whom I am trying to get work. It is very unfair that only the industry is looked at like that. People are being called names and are being abused while the industry has been giving so much back. We are always there for everything to support. All I can say is that I request people to look at it differently. Look at each kid as an individual. Yes, groupism exists in Bollywood but that is there everywhere. One has to learn to live with it. I believe it is not fair.”
