'Opportunities snatched away in other industries too'
When asked if she lost out on projects because of nepotism, Rakul said in Hindi, "Of course, and then as a result, you can become bitter. But this is not just part of the film industry, opportunities can be snatched away from you in any other industry, like the medical field… and I think that's life, the sooner you understand this, the better it is for your progress."
'Nepotism is not something I think too much about'
The actor, without taking any names, added, “Tomorrow, if my kids want help, of course, I will help them out and not force the same struggle as I had to undergo on them. Similarly, if star kids get easy access, it is because their parents have worked hard. So nepotism is not something I think too much about. Yes this is a reality, films have been taken away from me, but I am not a person who will get bitter. Maybe these projects were not meant for me. I move on. I feel bad for a day and then snatch out of it.”
