Suhana Khan’s ‘Vogue’ cover triggers tweeps

- By Shreya Bhatia, Reader Interactiv­ity Journalist

Shah Rukh Khan’s 18-year-old daughter, Suhana Khan, is on the cover of Vogue India and tweeps are furious. Online users criticised the cover and talked about how outsiders have no place in Bollywood because “nepotism rocks”. They even mocked Shah Rukh for promoting his daughter’s edition of the magazine, at the Vogue Beauty Awards 2018.

Suhana has not entered the film industry as an actor yet, which is why confused fans wondered what accolades got her this opportunit­y.

@IamBumikaC went on a twitter rant and in a series of tweets, discussed how unfair the ‘struggling actor’ has it in Bollywood. She tweeted: “What happens when you are not dressed appropriat­ely as per audition requiremen­ts? They ask us to come again another day…. Imagine going every day for a new test and getting rejected over and over again due to XYZ reasons? And trust me, the reason isn’t talent all the time. It varies.”

@VirtualRea­lity said: “Nepotism is as much a product of newsmakers, as it is of celebritie­s. If #Vogue considers Suhana Khan to be worthy of cover, it is because of the collective ‘media circus’ which feeds us ‘news’ about her, Aryan, Sara, Taimur, Misha, Navya, Aaradhya, whatever every day.”

The East India Comedy joked about the incident and predicted that at this rate, the next face of Time magazine would be Taimur Ali Khan, Saif Ali Khan’s infant son.
