There is a great debate on nepotism in bollywood. The star kids are always accused of enjoying the fortune of being from a star family. It is always said that they don’t have to struggle in bollywood, the movies come directly to them. However, there are some star kids whose career ended too soon, as they failed to reach the mark set by their parents.
Actresses like Hema Malini, Tanuja have enjoyed huge success in the Bollywood Industry. These veteran actresses received a lot of appreciation for their work and had a huge fan following. However, their daughters failed to keep on the legacy and couldn’t survive in the industry for a long time. Here is a list of some of those hit mothers but flop daughters duo:
Esha Deol
Dream girl Hema Malini is one of the most successful actresses of her time. Even at this age, Hema Malini still woos her fans. Her daughter Esha Deol debuted in bollywood with the film “Koi Mere Dil Se Pucge” and received filmfare award for best debutant but Esha couldn’t survive in the bollywood for a long time. Her carrier ended after 25 movies.
Twinkle Khanna
Even being the Daughter of the most famous and talented actors’ Rajesh Khanna and Dimple Kapadia, twinkle’s failed to impress the audience. Her mother dimple made a unique recognition by her offbeat roles but twinkle’s acting career ended way too soon.
Soha Ali Khan
Sharmila Tagore received a lot of fame and appreciation for her work in the bollywood. Howerver, Soha failed to reach to the mark set by her mother.
Tanisha Mukharjee
Tanuja gave many hit movies but her younger daughter Tanisha failed to receive even recognition in bollywood. Her first movie was a flop and her carrier ended soon.
Riya Sen
Riya Sen couldn’t make like her mother, Munumun Sen. Riya did well in modeling but couldn’t survive in the bollywood.
Pratibha Sinha
Pratibha is the daughter of Mala Sinha, who was a leading actress in 1950 and 1970. But Pratibha didn’t achieved success like her mother.
It seems like the phrase “like mother, like daughter” isn’t appropriate in the case of these bollywood mother-daughter duo.
