Khushi Kapoor Awarded NY Film Academy Scholarship, Faces Online Backlash
Boney Kapoor’s remarks about Khushi Kapoor’s academic success have sparked controversy online.
Following the legacy of her late mother, Sridevi, and sister, Janhvi Kapoor, Khushi Kapoor took her first steps in Bollywood with a film called The Archies, alongside renowned star kids. Despite high expectations, the film didn’t quite resonate with audiences. This year, she also appeared in Loveyapa alongside Junaid Khan, Aamir Khan’s son, and Ibrahim Ali Khan in Nadaaniyan. Unfortunately, the latter faced criticism, leading to backlash against Khushi online.
In a recent interview, Boney Kapoor proudly announced that Khushi has secured a scholarship at the New York Film Academy. He explained, “You send your audition to decide whether you can be admitted or not. And she was offered a scholarship.” This revelation quickly became a focal point for online criticism, as many questioned the basis of her admission.
Under a popular Reddit thread, some users expressed disbelief over Khushi’s scholarship. Comments like, “I wish my parents lied about me like this,” and “Not even a single cell in her body has an ability to act,” highlight a mixed reception regarding her career prospects. Others noted that despite some criticism, Khushi showed potential in her performance in Loveyapa.
Khushi’s journey begins on a complex stage marked by expectations and skepticism. How she navigates her path in the industry remains to be seen. What are your thoughts on her recent achievements and the public response?
