Richa Chadha bashes directors who posted condolences for Sushant Singh Rajput yet replace actresses who don’t sleep with them

Sushant Singh Rajput’s unfortunate death had blown over the nepotism debate and the ‘outsiders’ have been bashing the Bollywood biggies and star kids. But, there are some actors who have turned over the conversation and changed the perspective about it and said that with a deep-rooted caste system in the industry this ranking system should not come as a surprise. Actress Richa Chadha recently shared a lengthy post for her late friend Sushant Singh Rajput.

Richa had taken to her blog to write about Sushant’s death and how the star kids have been targetted. Commenting on nepotism, the actress wrote, “As for nepotism, it just makes me laugh out loud in real life. I don’t hate “star kids”. Why are we expected to? If someone’s father is a star, they are born into that household the same as we are to our folks. Are you ashamed of your parents ? Is it right to expect someone else to be ashamed of their parents/families/legacy? This is a hateful and nonsense argument. I am a self-made person in this business. Will you tell my children to be ashamed of my struggle to reach where I have, for instance? ‘Star-kids’ have to deal with rivalry within their own clans. Often this is an inter-generational, unforgiving and all encompassing contest. There exist hierarchies within the clan too, wherein say the grandson of a legendary singer or the son of an ace stuntman maybe thought of as lesser than that of a director or actor. Knowing how deeply rooted caste is in our country, why does this unstated ranking system surprise anyone? We may never know what someone else may be dealing with here. I empathise but I won’t know that pain, unless I am standing in their shoes.”

Richa also took a dig at the directors who posted condolence messages for Sushant but in reality are the one who replaces actresses just because they refuse to sleep with them. “Several directors were seen sharing condolence messages a month ago. So many among these have run down movies of their peers pre-release, have replaced actresses who refused to sleep with them at the last minute and several have in fact repeatedly forecasted ‘iska kuch nahi hoga’. Invariably, many such soothsayers only end up making bhurji with the eggs on their face. You’re not God. Stop infecting the world with your jadedness and cynicism,” Richa wrote in her post.
