4 months ago | 5 Views
The "hot topic" of nepotism and her collaboration with her filmmaker mother Aparna Sen have both been addressed by actress Konkona Sen Sharma. Konkona claimed in a Zoom conversation that she had "so much privilege and luck" but that she did not want to pursue acting. The younger child of actress Aparna Sen is Konkona.
The experience of working with her mother, Aparna Sen, is discussed by Konkona Sen Sharma.
“In a way I had the best kind of nepotism,” Konkona remarked. "Today, I realize it was a dream to work with my mother. Yes, I have experienced the best kind of nepotism in some ways, and it is a very contentious issue right now. I have had such fortunate and privileged life that I never really considered becoming an actor. I did not. She stated that she had no intentions of promoting me.

Konkona talks about nepotism
She also discussed her experience filming Mr and Mrs Iyer, saying, "My mother used to write Mr And Mrs Iyer on her desktop, and it used to be in my room." She would read it aloud to me, and my facial expressions were the only indicator to her that I should take on this role. Most of the time, I avoid being pulled into this nepotism. Is it unjust, in my opinion? Yes, it's unfair, but it happens everywhere. I would always want to recognize how fortunate and privileged I am in this circumstance, having had the chance to play Mr. and Mrs. Iyer in my third movie.
The 2002 movie Mr and Mrs Iyer, which stars Konkona and Rahul Bose, was directed by Aparna Sen. In addition to Iti Mrinalini, 15 Park Avenue, and Titli, Konkona and Aparna have also collaborated in other projects.
