On Saturday, the first look of Karan Johar's production Gunjan Saxena—The Kargil Girl was unveiled, which provided a fresh impetus to the on-going nepotism debate. The Janhvi Kapoor-starrer is about the first female Indian Air Force pilot to serve in a combat zone.

With B-Town's biggies such as Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar taking to social media to praise the trailer, a section of netizens said it was a "pure nepo movie that needs to be boycotted." Kapoor's fans swung to her rescue, saying that it's "an inspiring story for girls and that needs to be taken into consideration."
