Neha Dhupia and Suchitra Krishnamoorthi got into a Twitter war over the nepotism debate that has been going on currently. The war of words between the two started when the latter wrote that one shouldn’t aggravate against nepotism but rather ‘chamchagiri’ in Bollywood. She then gave the example of Neha Dhupia and alleged how because of her friendship with Karan Johar, she got the talk shows. Neha was not someone to stay silent. She hit back with a befitting reply.
Suchitra Krishnamoorthi tweeted, “Peeps its not #nepotisminbollywood one shld aggravate against but chamchagiri [sycophancy]. I mean how did #nehadhupia suddenly get all these talk shows except that she is #karanjohar’s new bestie and #femina Missindia 2002!! — shes no blood relative or star kid is she.” To which Neha replied back, “Dear ma’am, this is possibly the most distasteful and disgraceful tweet I have ever read (trust me I have read a lot) to reduce a friendship of many years, that you know nothing about speaks volumes of you and the time you have at hand.”
She continued, “I am proud to be self-made… a proud daughter, wife and mother and I have the deepest regards for women who can acknowledge that. #strongwomensupportstrongwomen.”

Later, Suchitra defended herself saying, “i knew i would get trolled. i have nothing personal against anyone. Ofcourse nobody survives without talent. But do hear what a lot of people are saying – & young kids bng boycotted bec of this whole nepotism debate. Its groupism that thrives (i used the word chamchagiri) ?(sic)”.

In another tweet, she hit back at Neha saying, “& dear @NehaDhupia I am so absorbed with my MANY artistic pursuits & single mom responsibilities i genuinely have ZERO time to spare esp on strangers as U. Except when something jolts my conscience to the extent that i feel i must speak up 4 a fair perspective & larger good TC(sic)”.
