When asked if nepotism had ever affected him personally, Jaideep Ahlawat expressed that he didn't believe Ranbir Kapoor or Varun Dhawan would ever take away any of his roles. He emphasized that one shouldn't be under the delusion that being a star kid automatically makes someone a good actor.

Ahlawat further added, “Wo bahar se bhi aata na tab bhi wo Ranbir Kapoor banta. (Even if he had been an outsider, he would have become Ranbir Kapoor."

The 'Paatal Lok' star also mentioned that he did not enter the industry to become another Ranbir Kapoor. Similarly, he believes it is wrong for any girl to enter the industry with the goal of becoming the next Alia Bhatt. "I am not the second Ranbir Kapoor; I am the first Jaideep Ahlawat," he expressed.

Jaideep Ahlawat is gearing up for the release of his upcoming movie 'Maharaj,' which also features Aamir Khan’s son, Junaid Khan, making his debut. Recently, the makers dropped the first poster of Maharaj on social media. The poster features actor Jaideep Ahlawat and Aamir Khan's son, Junaid Khan.
