Sushant Singh Rajput’s untimely demise opened debates around nepotism and favouritism in Bollywood. However, his family members recently launched an app called Nepometer, which measures how nepotistic a film is.
The app has rated Alia Bhatt’s upcoming film Sadak 2 98 per cent nepotistic. On Thursday, it measured Mahesh Bhatt’s Sadak 2 and rated it 98 per cent nepotistic.
In their social media post, they wrote, “#Sadak2 is 98% Nepotistic. We rated it based on 5 categories, Producer, Lead Artists, Supporting Artists, Director & Writer. 4 out of 5 categories have Bollywood Family members.
