Mumbai: The death of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput ignited the nepotism debate and many started digging up old graves.
Amidst the nepotism uproar, filmmaker Anubhav Sinha stated that there are ‘bigger evils’ other than nepotism in Bollywood.
The filmmaker further said that before addressing nepotism, the film fraternity should do away with the other evils that are plaguing the industry.
He wrote, “Can I please puke next time I hear of nepotism in Bollywood??? There is so much more vile sh*t that needs to be scavenged through to start finding some semblance to hard facts. STOP COVERING UP!!!”
However, Anubhav didn’t explain what he meant by ‘bigger evils.’
In a recent interview, Anubhav said, “Obviously, this is tragic. But what is going on in the aftermath of that is a farce. Suddenly, there’s this crowd of a whole lot of people who have become the advocates of outsiders. They don’t understand what outsiders mean and what insiders mean. That has nothing to do with the industry. Suddenly, they have the right of question, and then this new troll brigade.”
The filmmaker has been actively tweeting about nepotism and the other evils in the industry following Sushant’s tragic demise.
“The Bollywood Privilege Club must sit down and think hard tonight. PS- Now don’t ask me to elaborate any further,” he wrote after learning about Sushant’s death.
