Despite Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor walking away with praise for his dark turn in the recently-released Netflix thriller ‘Thar’, the Bollywood actor has found himself on the receiving end of memes and online trolling following a comment he made in a recent interview that several on social media said reeks of privilege.
In a conversation with Mashable India’s ‘The Bombay Journey’, Harsh Varrdhan stated that he didn’t lead the kind of privileged life that people thought he did, alluding to his Bollywood connections — he’s the son of veteran actor Anil Kapoor and brother to actress Sonam Kapoor.
Rather than pamper him with luxury gifts, Harsh Varrdhan said his parents, including mother Sunita Kapoor, reportedly let him fend for himself.
