Nepotism does not guarantee you success. An entry point? Yes that can be a possibility but post that everyone is the captain of their own ship. There have been several actors who have had a not so successful acting career. And this star kid also is enlisted on the same list. While one may have seen them working with big names a solo film has only tanked at the box office. This actor did not have it good in Bollywood despite an amazing start. How many aspiring actors get a chance to make their debut with Shah Rukh Khan? This starkid did but was unable to make it big there after. One of the biggest and the richest families in Bollywood everyone seems to be carving a niche on their own. His elder brother is a filmmaker his sister-in-law is one of the most talented actors in the industry. This actor made his debut with Shah Rukh Khan Youngest in the family Uday Chopra has been associated with big banner films big actors however could not carve out his own route to success. He made his debut in the industry in one of the cult classics Mohabbatein (2000). This was written and directed by his brother Aditya Chopra and produced by his father Yash Chopra. While the movie has a loyal fan base same cannot be true for the actor. Rani Mukerji is his sister-in-law. Chopra worked as Assistant Director on Darr Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge Dil Toh Pagal Hai etc. Post his debut Chopra was seen in films like Mere Yaar ki Shaadi Hai Mujhse Dosti Karoge Dhoom series Neal n Nikki etc. While Dhoom a star-studded cast made a lace in audience hearts other films did not do well at the box office. And Uday Chopra did not maintain his personal streak. Why this starkid could not make it big? In one of his older interviews he had said “Everyone who enters Bollywood has dreams. I won’t lie — I wanted to be number one too but things did not work out. I faced rejection from the audience and I just couldn’t accept it. I went into denial refusing to believe that this could be happening…but then reality hit me hard. In these two years all the froth and rubbish has come out of me. I now know who I am and what my limitations are. It’s been a cathartic process.” In Netflixs recent docu-series The Romantics Aditya talks about nepotism and why Uday Chopra couldnt go far in his acting career. He said My brother is an actor and hes not a very successful actor. Now here is the son of one of the biggest filmmakers hes the brother of a very big filmmaker. Imagine a company like YRF that has probably launched the most newcomers and we could not make him a star. Why could we not do it for our own? Because the bottom line is only an audience will decide I like this person I want to see this person. No one else can decide that. Following this Uday opened up about his career. When Dhoom happened I was still trying to be a mainstream actor. I should have taken Ali as an example and done roles like that Uday said. The Mohabbatein actor further said that he received many offers but he refused them all as he was trying to get into a space that he agreed wasnt meant for him. When I started acting I was very naive. I thought everyone would like me. I didnt imagine that people might not like me. He referred to the constant discussion around him and how he wasnt a successful actor and was called a child of nepotism. It did affect me a lot Uday admitted. Years later Uday quit acting. He has opened his own venture called Yomics - a comic book division of Yash Raj Films. According to a report by GQ India Uday Chopras under andover net worth is about Rs 50 crore.
