Harshvardhan shares his views

In an interview with India Today, Harshvardhan shared his thoughts on the presence of nepotism in the industry. In the interview, he was asked if the noise around star kids makes him feel bitter about his career trajectory.

To which, Harshvardhan said, "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."

He added, "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".

When it comes to his Bollywood journey, the actor shares that he wants the fraternity to believe that if they give him a decent project, he will be able to “convey a story”. He shared that the aim is to win a happy producer, who gives him the “warmest hug after the release of our film”.
