Vidyut and Kunal's nepotism controversy

The nepotism controversy was fuelled on Monday after Kunal Kemmu and Vidyut Jammwal were snubbed from a 'Big' virtual OTT announcement meeting. Jammwal's Khuda Hafiz was revealed to be one of the films to release on Disney+ Hotstar along with Akshay Kumar's Laxxmi Bomb, Sadak 2, featuring Alia Bhatt, Ajay Devgn's Bhuj: The Pride of India, Abhishek Bachchan-starrer The Big Bull, and Kunal Kemmu's Lootcase. However, the poster of the announcement had no mention of the two movies Lootcase and Khuda Hafiz.

Vidyut on seeing trade analyst Taran Adarsh's post was shocked and disappointed that he wasn't given the due recognition on the platform and conveyed the same on Twitter by writing, "7 films scheduled for release but only 5 are deemed worthy of representation. 2 films, receive no invitation or intimation. It’s a long road ahead. THE CYCLE CONTINUES." [sic]

Kunal Kemmu also took to his Twitter handle on Monday to express his disappointment after not being given recognition at the Disney+ Hotstar event and instead only inviting Varun Dhawan, Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, and Alia Bhatt. "Respect and love are not asked for, they are earned. If someone doesn't give it to us, it doesn't make us any smaller. Just give us a field to play and we too can take a high leap," wrote Kemmu.
