Times of India - EntertainmentMonday, July 7, 2025 at 3:33:52 PM
This piece dives into the often-overlooked struggles of Bollywood star kids—those born into fame but wrestling with its weight. While some, like Jackky Bhagnani, pivot to producing or web series to carve their own lane, others, like Uday Chopra and Athiya Shetty, take quieter, less conventional routes. The article peels back the glossy surface to show that privilege doesn’t guarantee fulfillment, and success isn’t always measured in box-office numbers.
Editor’s Note: We’re used to seeing star kids as overnight successes, but this story reminds us that their journeys are messier—and more human—than the headlines suggest. It’s a reality check on how privilege and pressure collide, and why some choose to step off the expected path. For anyone navigating family expectations or public scrutiny, there’s something relatable here.
