Arshad Warsi Says Kangana Ranaut Came Up With The Idea Of Nepotism

“Kangana came out with the idea of nepotism, and then it got big, and everyone started talking about it. Yes, it’s there, but it doesn’t bother me. My heart tells me at the end of the day it’s about how talented you are and that’s how far you will go,” Warsi stated in an interview with Filmygyan.

“I also know that it’s not easy for a star kid. The expectations are so high. It’s like today I see that happening with my child. The impression other people have of them, because they are my kids, is that they have to be good actors. I feel like, ‘oh my god, don’t say that,’ because everyone has their own personalities. Too much is expected of star kids, and they have to live up to too many people’s expectations. It’s not fair. The maximum that can happen to them is a door gets opened faster, but if you are not talented, it shuts down quickly,” he explained.

Warsi, who has two children—son Zeke Warsi and daughter Zene Zoe Warsi—mentioned that his focus isn’t solely on success or failure but rather on nurturing genuine talent and understanding of their craft. “I’m not particularly concerned about whether they achieve success or face failure in the industry. My priority is to see them develop real talent,” he said.
