Bollywood hierarchy rules, especially when it comes to the star kids traversing in the same path trodden upon by their popular actor parents!! We are talking of the next generation of the star kids who are already making heads turn, even before they could get an opportunity to showcase their potential as actors!!
So where do these opportunities and popularity come from? Well, social media plays a big role in shaping up an individual’s career today. And for such celebrity kids, making hay while the sun shines, is simply a cakewalk. Gone are the days when actors used to face their crazy fans only in public gatherings and outdoor shoots!! Today’s stars have access to their fans’ feedbacks and comments, right on their social media profiles!! That’s the power of social media for you!!
So what if the launchpad is not yet ready to showcase acting talent? One can still manage to bag a huge fan following, by staying active on social media, by putting up the best of pictures, working with the best of brands even before they hit mainstream cinema!!
We take a tour of such star kids who have already hit the limelight on social media, before bagging their first commercial hit!!
Khushi Kapoor, the younger daughter of filmmaker Boney Kapoor and Sridevi, holds an acting degree from New York. She is yet to be launched in mainstream Bollywood. However, if you look at her social media handles, she has already bagged a huge fan following.

Alaya F, the sizzling hot daughter of actress Pooja Bedi has made her dream debut with Jawaani Jaaneman which released in the year 2020. However, even before that, Alaya was a sensation of sorts on social media, courtesy her admirable looks and s*x appeal.

Aryan Khan, the brother of Suhana Khan is also one of the star kids who is waiting to spread his wings and shine on the big screen. Alas!! Aryan seems to be on the wrong foot now, with his arrest in the drugs scandal giving him a setback. But we are sure that this dashing star kid will finally make his way into the hearts of the masses. He is already popular on social media, just like his sis!!

After all, the industry trend speaks of the social media standing being the first step to success as an actor!!
