Trolling Feels Personal, Says Anjini
In coversation with Bollywood Bubble, Anjini shared her thoughts on dealing with trolling, especially in light of the nepotism backlash around Nadaaniyan. She said that while the criticism can get intense and feel personal, the success or failure of a film doesn’t depend on just one actor. Many people work together to make a film.

Nepotism Debate Rekindled After Netflix Release
Netflix's film Nadaaniyan has stirred fresh debate over nepotism in Bollywood. While some viewers criticised the film’s quality and the lead actors’ talent, others defended their potential and the movie’s concept. Featuring star kids Khushi Kapoor and Ibrahim Ali Khan, the film reignited talks about favoritism towards celebrity children in the industry.
Her favourite Varun Dhawan film
Further Anjini also opened up about her admiration for her cousin Varun Dhawan’s film career and revealed her top four favourite movies from his filmography. She named Badlapur, October, Main Tera Hero, and Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania as the ones she loves the most.
She also shared that Badlapur holds a special place for her because it showcased a darker, intense side of Varun that people hadn’t seen before. She admired how he transformed for the role and proved his range as an actor. She also included October, appreciating the emotional depth and sensitivity Varun brought to the film, which she felt was both moving and powerful.
