Mumbai: Actor Harshvardhan Rane, whose re-released debut film ‘Sanam Teri Kasam’ has impressed the audience, recently shared his thoughts on star kids and nepotism.
During an interview with India Today, the actor shared that he holds no grudges against star kids and doesn’t feel that they are more privileged than outsiders.
“Honestly, I am someone who believes in writing down things rather than just believing the voices floating around me. When people talk about star kids getting all the opportunities, I write their names and realise 8 out of 10 have already vanished from the scene. Hence, I am not able to feel resentment when I do the mathematics and realise how outsiders are the ones who continue to get good work. How can we not look at their success? I can thus never bring myself to complain about it,” Harshvardhan said.
“This is not any kind of positive affirmation, but it’s facts. I think every time someone has a doubt, they should make a note. There are no biases or partialities, just hard facts. Not many star kids have found work eventually, and it’s the outsiders who are at the top,” he added.
Harshvardhan and Mawra Hocane’s romantic drama ‘Sanam Teri Kasam’, made on a budget of ₹14 crore, had turned out to be a dud at the box office when it had originally hit theatres in February 2016.
However, the film is doing quite well since its re-release on February 7, having minted double than its original collections.
