Ever since Kangana Ranaut had levelled Karan as "flag-bearer of nepotism", the director has been accused of promoting it too often. It is often alleged that Karan only promotes star kids, and not the more talented but underprivileged ones. There had been a major debate around nepotism inside and outside the industry.
Nonetheless, Jhanvi and Ishaan are the new pair in the industry and are likely to become the trending topic with their debut's movie's poster being out.
