Nawazuddin Siddiqui On Struggle In Bollywood 

Very few people know that Nawazuddin Siddiqui worked as an extra in Rajkumar Hirani’s Munna Bhai M.B.B.S. However, over the last few years, he has carved a niche for himself in Bollywood. While talking about favoritism Nawaz said, "Many outsiders in Bollywood are mediocre too. Irrespective of whether they are insiders or outsiders’, talent should be respected."

On the question of how he reviews his struggle in the light of Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, He said that struggle is part of everyone’s life but important is where you want to go, what is your destiny.

Here is the exact quote by Nawazuddin Siddiqui: "See mai kis cheez se aa raha hoo wo important nahi hai. Important hai muzhe kahan jana hai. Bhale aap train se jaye, auto se jaye woh mayne nahi rakhata.”

According to Nawazuddin Siddiqui, an actor needs to be patient and continue hard work. For some the success may come early, while some actors will have to struggle more, he says.

Radhika Apte Questions Society For Adulating Star Kids

Radhika Apte said that she doesn't want to discuss nepotism and struggle of outsiders in the light of the current scenario triggered by Sushant Singh Rajput’s suicide. Nevertheless, Radhika hopes that now onward people will take mental health seriously.

Radhika quoted:

“A lot of people battle with mental health. I have battled with mental issues and was fortunate to have family, colleagues, and friends around.”

Regarding being sensible to the others in the film industry Radhika said that sensitivity or empathy should be shown to everyone in general. But she believes that there should be less hierarchy. She asks,” If somebody has money and wants to cast their son or daughter in movies what are you going to say?” The Kabali actress takes a dig at the society that adulates star kids even before they start going to nurseries and KG classes.

She says, “Aren’t we responsible, as a society to make star kids celebrities at the age of 4 months?”
