Actress Pooja Bhatt said in her tweets that it is funny to accuse a banner of nepotism that has launched and backed many new talents, be it musicians, actors, and technicians. Pooja also talked about Kangana Ranaut who started the debate on nepotism, was also launched by Vishesh films. However, she was discovered by filmmaker Anurag Basu but his vision was backed by their banner. Check out her tweets here -
Have been asked to comment on the hot topic Nepotism that people are raging about. As someone who hails from a 'family' that has launched more new talent-actors,musicians & technicians,than the entire film industry combined I can only laugh.Facts don't find takers. Fiction does.

There was a time when the Bhatt's were accused of having something against established actors & made to feel inferior for only working with/launching newcomers & not chasing stars. And now the same people play the nepotism card? Google & tweet guys & won't even say think & speak.

As for Kangana Ranaut-She is a great talent,if not she wouldn't have been launched by Vishesh films in `Gangster`.Yes Anurag Basu discovered her,but Vishesh Films backed his vision & invested in the film. No small feat. Here's wishing her the very best in all her endeavours.
