Nepotism is often talked about in Indian cinema but its not a new thing! It has existed for generations. Whether its Bollywood or South Indian cinema star families have always dominated the industry. If one member of a family becomes a hero its almost certain that the next generation will continue the legacy creating an entire star dynasty. Just like Bollywood has the Kapoor and Khan families the South film industry has seen dynasties like the Kamal Haasan family and the Akkineni family ruling for decades. However there is one star family in South Indian cinema that has produced several superstars and is wealthier than many other well-known film families in terms of net worth.
