When the news of the demise of Sushant Singh Rajput broke out, the spotlight fell on nepotism in the industry and how allegedly star kids had it easy. People like Karan Johar came in for much criticism for promoting talent that mostly comprised star kids. This led to speculation that Reliance Entertainment kicked out Johar from their upcoming project, Sooryavanshi due to the fear of bad press surrounding the producer. However, this is mere conjecture as per trade analyst Taran Adarsh.
