Dhanashree Verma Speaks Out on Talent Over Nepotism in Bollywood
In the latest buzz from the reality show Rise and Fall, actress and dancer Dhanashree Verma didn’t hold back. She passionately explained how her talent, not just industry connections or seniority, has kept her career going strong in Bollywood. This comes amid heated discussions on nepotism in the film industry, where newcomers often struggle against established names.
During the fourth episode, Dhanashree clashed openly with co-contestant Aahana Kumra. Standing her ground, she said, "I do not believe this. I am standing here, the whole world is against me, but I am standing here and getting work today. I had said this earlier too, I love the industry because people are still giving me work. Mujhe movies pe movies ke offer aa rahe hai, not because of what has happened but because I have talent. So if I don’t stand up for myself, it has nothing to do with experience, it is to do with intent."
Dhanashree’s words highlight her journey as a talented artist fighting for recognition in Bollywood. She emphasized that real skill trumps privilege, inspiring many fans who follow her story closely.

"When you are in marriage, then you are responsible ki dusre person ka bhi respect aapke haath mein hota hai. Chah kar main bhi disrespect kar sakti thi. (When you are in marriage, then you are responsible that the respect of the other person is also in your hands. I could have also disrespected if I wanted to). You think I don’t have things to say as a woman, but he was my husband. I respected even when I was married and I have to respect it now that I was married to him," she shared emotionally.
This candid confession about her personal life, including her divorce from Yuzvendra Chahal, shows Dhanashree’s grace under pressure. It resonates with audiences dealing with similar relationship challenges.
