Anu Malik opens up about nepotism in industry; says ‘things are easier now for outsiders than star kids’

Singer-composer Anu Malik opened up about nepotism in the industry in a recent interview with ANI and shared how his daughters – Anmol and Ada Malik are working hard to establish themselves. He said now it has become easier for someone from outside to make it in the industry than star kids.

Malik said, ‘My daughter Anmol is an outstanding singer and I have helped countless singers but has anyone come forward and expressed his wish to work with my daughter.’ The singer then mentioned the songs sung by his daughter like 'Nagin Dance', 'Talli' and many more, and added that she has struggled in the industry even more than him.

‘In fact, my younger daughter Ada also worked very hard. She is a fashion designer. I and my wife have just decided to teach our kids, educate them and let them keep their heads high in society,’ he informed ANI.

He also shared that Anmol has written a book that is being made into a series.

‘She has written a book titled 'Three Impossible Wishes', published by HarperCollins, which is being converted into a series. I am really proud of her,’ he said.

‘So, those who talk about nepotism should know that star kids have to work very hard. Neither, my daughter knew that she will be Anu Malik's daughter nor I was aware that I will be the son of a musician, Sardar Malik. People just listen to the songs. They don't know how much hard work I have put to establish myself in the industry,’ Anu Malik said.

Anu Malik has given many hits ‘Taal Pe Jab’ and ‘Mere Humsafar’ from the film ‘Refugee’, ‘Tumse Milke Dilka Jo Haal’ from ‘Main Hoon Na’, ‘Baazigar O Baazigar’ from ‘Baazigar’ and many more.
