Urvashi Rautela on nepotism in Bollywood debate

When asked to comment on nepotism in Bollywood, the 26-year old actor said that whatever she wants to say, people already know and are talking about it. In her conversation, she also revealed that YRF production banner film Ishaqzaade was first offered to her opposite Arjun Kapoor. But, she turned down the project to concentrate on her beauty pageant. Further, she mentioned about her debut film, Singh Saab the Great. The actor said it just fell on her lap. She concluded saying that winning beauty pageants helped her a lot to get opportunities.
