Ananya Panday
finally addresses being called a 'Star Kid'! She opens up about the criticism on
Raj Samani’s podcast.
‘What’s the worst part of being a star kid?’
Ananya shares,
‘People make you ashamed of where you come from.’
I don’t want to feel ashamed of
my father’s legacy,’
she said, defending her journey and family’s background in Bollywood.
Ananya calls out
the negativity, ‘The term star kid has become an insult, but I don’t think it’s a bad word.’
She highlighted,
‘There are thriving actors from film families and outsiders. It’s the person, not their background, that matters.
Taking Shah
Rukh Khan’s example,
she said, ‘The biggest star in our country is not from a film family. Talent always shines.’
Ananya emphasized,
‘It’s unfair to shame someone for their roots. The industry has space for everyone, regardless of origin.
