Sushant Singh Rajput’s death has highlighted the issue of nepotism in the entertainment industry once again. Aniruddh Dave feels that nepotism exists everywhere, in every field, and it is wrong to target one particular industry.

“I feel nepotism exists everywhere. It’s in the corporate world too. A doctor’s son becomes a doctor, a lawyer’s son becomes a lawyer, everyone wants their next generation to follow their legacy. I don’t know why only Bollywood is being targeted. I feel to work in this industry, you need to be talented and understand the craft,” said the actor.

Aniruddh added, “Star kids might get a launch because of their parents, but that’s it. To sustain yourself, you need to have talent. People need to understand that if you are not talented, you will not get work. I feel the issue of nepotism is being exaggerated.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
