Allu Arjun\'s response to the nepotism charge

‘Call it what you will, but we’re in it for generations’.

There has always been a big debate about nepotism in the film industry, and Telugu cinema is no exception. Many actors come from families which have been in films for generations. A new generation is now entering the industry and there is a criticism that film people only encourage those from their own families. Allu Arjun, has this to say about the issue. “In a temple, the pujari (priest) devotes his entire life to God, after him his son does so, and so it continues. What we’re doing is similar. My grandfather entertains, my father entertains, and now I am doing the same. We are here to entertain the Telugu audience as long as we live and for generations to come.”
