The noted filmmaker Karan Johar on Monday launched Shanaya Kapoor under Dharma Productions. Shanaya, who is the daughter of Bollywood actor Sanjay Kapoor and Maheep Kapoor will start shooting her debut film in July this year.
Sharing the news, Karan wrote, ” “Another beautiful addition to our growing @dcatalent family! Welcome to the #DCASquad, @shanayakapoor02. Her enthusiasm, perseverance and diligence is so amazing to see. Join us in showering your love & blessings as she begins her first film with @DharmaMovies, this July! Watch this space for film details!!!”

For the unversed, Shanaya was one of the assistants on Janhvi Kapoor’s Gunjan Saxena – The Kargil Girl. She had earlier made an appearance in Maheep’s Netflix series Fabulous Lives Of Bollywood Wives.
Followed by the announcement, the trollers who have earlier tagged Karan as the ‘Flag bearer of Nepotism’, trolled him once again for launching a star kid.
Several users took to Twitter and expressed their disappointment on the launch. One user wrote, “Critical case of nepotism.”

Wish #ShanayaKapoor could make her debut with challenging roles like Mallika Sherawat of #Murder Indira Verma of #KamaSutra These were successful movies…
Let people see her first. Kapoor naam se movies to milti rahegi #nepotism – konsi acting karke jhande gaad ne hai.— Always Abhishek (@Dev_Aryan5373) March 22, 2021
No matter how much we make those hashtags viral, we are the one who watch their movies and allow people like Karan to ignore the outside talent. From #Janhavi to #AnanyaPanday and now Shanaya and many more to come.We are responsible for this favouritism. #bollywood #SSR #nepotism
