Baadshah of Bollywood told IANS while promoting his film Jab Harry Met Sejal in Delhi," I don't understand nepotism.How can I understand it? I am a Delhi boy who came to Mumbai at the age of 25.There everybody loved me and accepted me. So I don't understand this talk." Shah Rukh Khan may have started off as an outsider, but things are going to be different for his three children - Aryan, Suhana and Abram. And here's SRK has to say about their career choice, " I want my kids to make a name for themselves on their own feet. If they want to become marine biologist, then should become that. If they want to become an actor or a filmmaker, then that's also great. I don't understand this discussion. When I hear the word, I feel the other person is talking about Napoleon. Even though I know enough English, still I don't understand it and the discussion. Whether I agree or disagree - I don't even understand it so how can I have an opinion?"

His 'Jab Harry Met Sejal' team, Anushka Sharma and filmmaker Imtiaz Ali have already spoke the nepotism debate at a song launch event in Mumbai.  The filmmaker had said,  "Hum teeno bahar se hain, agar hamare khilaaf koi nepotism hua hota toh hum yahan pe hote hi nahi. Main apne baare mein ye bahut confidence se keh sakta hoon ki agar main yahaan par hoon toh it's only because of the love and affection of the existing film industry at that time." Model turned actress Anushka Sharma who got a dream debut with Yash Raj Films also denied dealing with nepotism.
