Luv Ranjan discusses nepotism in Bollywood; claims many newcomers suffer from the victim syndrome – Times of India

Luv was speaking at the ongoing International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa during a session on the changing phase of the entertainment industry and how to break into it. According to him, nepotism is an inheritance of relationships. But in the industry, it becomes a sour topic. The filmmaker added that even if your parents are from the industry, all that gets you is your first film, or maybe your second. But after that, it’s your work that speaks for you.

Elaborating further, the director stated that a lot of newcomers have the victim syndrome. According to him, they get stuck up in the notion that they are good. But it doesn’t mean that others are bad. He added that people don’t realise that filmmaking cannot be detached from business.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Luv Ranjan’s next directorial stars Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor in lead roles. The film also features Boney Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia in key roles. Reports are also rife that he will be reuniting with Kartik Aaryan for ‘Pyaar Ka Punchnama 3’.
