Zoya Akhtar, Javed Akhtar Daughter, Is Launching Star Kids!
The classic comic book The Archies will be adapted into a movie by director Zoya Akhtar, and it will debut on December 7. There are seven new actors in the Netflix original. Khushi Kapoor, Suhana Khan, and Agastya Nanda are three of these seven performers who are from film families, which has reignited the nepotism controversy. Screenwriter-lyricist Javed Akhtar, Zoya’s father, stands by his daughter for starting Star Kids.
Javed stated during Sahitya Aajtak 2023 that Zoya has the right, as a director, to cast anybody she chooses. He went on to say that since she is introducing the celebrity kids voluntarily and not because of their wealthy origins, it is not nepotism.
Netflix nepotism continues right from the director to the actors…..

“She has every right to take anybody under the sun,” stated Javed Akhtar. “She shouldn’t be questioned. She is taking the risk. It is her project and she is backing it.” Javed said that independent filmmakers do not receive government or major organization funding; instead, they take personal chances with their work. As a result, they are free to cast whoever they want.
Along with Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter Suhana Khan, Boney Kapoor’s daughter Khushi Kapoor, and Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson Agastya Nanda, the cast of The Archies includes Vedang Raina, Dot, Mihir Ahuja, and Yuvraj Menda.

Javed Akhtar continued his discussion on nepotism by stating, “There is a lot of talk about nepotism in the film industry. The film industry is full of nepotism. As far as the world is concerned, it is not so much as it is. Aadmi yaha khud risk le raha hain yahan nepotism isiliye nahi hain. Wo kisi aur ke kandhe pe bandook rakhe huye hain.”
