Anurag Kashyap recently claimed that one of the reasons nepotism exists is also because that is what the audience wants to see. He shared an example of actor Tiger Shroff and Taimur Ali Khan

Anurag wrote on twitter, “ This is nepotism by media ..? Why?? Because this is what you the audience wants to see .. So isn’t it nepotism by you the audience too??”
