Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi’s idea of citing Bollywood as an example while discussing ‘dynasty politics’ in India during his Berkeley speech, has irked veteran actor Rishi Kapoor. Gandhi said:
“Most parties in India have that problem (dynasty politics) So…Mr Akhilesh Yadav is a dynast. Mr Stalin is a dynast… even Abhishek Bachchhan is a dynast. So that’s how India runs. So don’t get after me because that’s how India is run.”
Rishi, who is known for his strong views and opinions, on Tuesday tweeted:
Rahul Gandhi.In the 106 years of Indian cinema of India, Kapoor’s contribution is 90 years. And each generation is chosen by public on merit

So don’t bullshit people on “Dynasty” You have to earn people’s respect and love through hard work not zabardasti and gundagardi.
