Watch both the films, please, and enjoy both. This sends a good message out that aap logon ne akele poora ka poora Bollywood se nepotism hi khatm kar diya (you people alone finished nepotism from the entire Bollywood).\u201dHis statement instantly drew loud cheers from the crowd. With folded hands, he added, \u201cI hope you like it. And those of you in your family who haven\u2019t watched it, please come once again with them.\u201d<\/p>\n

True fan.\u201d Referring to his nepotism remark, one more fan shared, \u201cAudience has all the power! Actors should remember that!\u201d<\/p>\n

Netizens share mixed opinions on his comment<\/p>\n

However, not everyone agreed with Harshvardhan\u2019s choice of words. Some social media users questioned the timing of his remark and felt he should have avoided such statements.One user on X wrote, \u201cIt\u2019s his personal opinion. And in my personal opinion and limited experience, SUCH STATEMENTS SHOULD BE STRICTLY AVOIDED.\u201dAnother added a sarcastic note, \u201cWah re Harshvardhan. Outsider vs Nepotism ka game shuru kar diya. Ye log ko bas ek hit mil jaaye, uske baad apna rang dikhaane lagte hain.\u201d<\/p>\n
