Has nepotism been a concern for Aditya Roy Kapur? The Night Manager actor REVEALS
Aditya The Night Manager, Roy Kapur's online series, has become a huge success. Aditya has earned praise for his portrayal of Shaan Sengupta and has succeeded in carving out a place for himself in the OTT industry. Aditya recently opened up about how he feels when nepotism is brought up in an interview. He also discusses his experience with the audition process.
Aditya Roy Kapur was recently asked about nepotism in an interview with Filmfare. He was also asked about his thoughts on the subject. Aditya said that he had succeeded in making films without his brothers' help and had established himself on his own in Bollywood. He said, “I think people know that I have kind of made my own way into the industry. I started with supporting roles in films my brothers weren’t involved with. My journey has been a public one. People saw my career develop slowly. By the time I did my first leading role, I had already done three supporting parts. So I think that journey is clear for people to see.”
Aditya acknowledged that he had experienced rejection when applying for employment in the past, but it had never had a negative effect on him. The actor added, “If you want to be an actor, I think rejection is part of the process. You better get used to it. The early days of auditioning were pretty much basically a lot of no. I used to audition for a lot of stuff but it’s not like I knew for sure that I wanted to be an actor. I was an RJ and I was happy. I was never really into films. For me, it happened by chance. I used to go to certain auditions because people used to call me now and then. And I would audition because you never know what opportunities would come. But I don’t think those early years scarred me a lot.”
Aditya has been in the news for reasons other than his career, such as his alleged relationship with Ananya Panday. On a recent movie date in Mumbai, the couple was seen enjoying the Hollywood classic Barbie. The actor did not confirm or deny the rumours regarding his love life and stayed silent about it.
