In a new conversation, the director called the nepotism debate surrounding the film “normal”. He also said that no one can tell him what to do with his money at the end of the day. Zoya Akhtar spoke on the debate of nepotism In an interview with The Juggernaut, The Archies director Zoya Akhtar opened up about the nepotism debate. “I think the debate is about the rich and the poor,” he said. It’s about privilege, access, and social capital. I completely understand the anger or frustration over the fact that you don’t have the access that some people get so easily. This should be a conversation.” He further said that everyone should get the same kind of education and job opportunities, but when you turn around and say that Suhana Khan should not be in their film, then “it is normal because it will affect someone in your life.” There will be no change, whether it is in my film or not. .You have to talk about what is going to change your life,” the director said.
