Rishaab Chauhaan on Nepotism and His TV Debut in Ishq Jabariya!

Rishaab Chauhaan, cousin of comedian and actor Krushna Abhishek, has recently made his TV debut, captivating audiences as Ritwik in Sun Neo’s popular show Ishq Jabariya. While this may be his first step into television, Rishaab’s performance is already turning heads. In a candid interview, Rishaab shared Krushna’s reaction to his debut and opened up about the controversial topic of nepotism in the entertainment industry.

Let’s dive into what he had to say!

Krushna Reaction to Rishaab Debut
Rishaab revealed that Krushna Abhishek was delighted to hear about his TV debut on Ishq Jabariya. “The day I started shooting, Krushna found out I was making my TV debut, and he was very happy to hear that,” said Rishaab. It was a special moment for him to have his cousin’s support as he stepped into the world of television.

However, Rishaab pointed out that while Krushna was excited, he wasn’t involved in securing Rishaab the role—proving that nepotism didn’t play a part in his career start.

Rishaab on Nepotism: Talent Can’t Be Inherited
When asked about nepotism, Rishaab had some interesting thoughts to share. He acknowledged that while having a relative in the industry might give someone a push, it doesn’t guarantee success or stardom.

“In this industry, it’s about knowing you have a good friend by your side. If nepotism were the key, there are many big stars whose children haven’t been able to achieve much,” Rishaab explained. He used the analogy of Sachin Tendulkar and his son to highlight that while you can inherit support, you can’t inherit talent. Just like Sachin’s son may or may not live up to his father’s cricketing legacy, the same goes for acting skills.

Rishaab believes that a true artist will prove themselves with their talent and hard work, regardless of family connections. Nepotism might give you that first chance, but it won’t carry you through an entire career.

The Push vs. The Journey
Rishaab continued by saying, “You can give someone a push, like helping them start on a bicycle, but you can’t keep pushing them forever.” This analogy perfectly captures the limitations of nepotism. Family ties might help someone get that initial push into the industry, but it’s ultimately up to the individual to pedal their way forward.

“A true artist will keep going, and if not, they’ll fall off,” he added. This perspective highlights how stardom must be earned, not handed over on a silver platter. Nepotism may open doors, but hard work, dedication, and talent are what keep someone in the spotlight.

Rishaab’s Role in Ishq Jabariya
Currently playing Ritwik in Ishq Jabariya, Rishaab feels deeply connected to his character. The show revolves around Gulki—a young woman with big dreams, facing challenges from her controlling stepmother. Along her journey, she may find love in unexpected places. The ensemble cast includes Kamya Panjabi, Siddhi Sharma, and Lakshay Khurana, all of whom have brought their own magic to the screen.

For Rishaab, working alongside such a talented cast has been an enriching experience, and he’s quickly making a name for himself in the industry. His fresh take on acting and genuine connection to the storyline have made him a rising star to watch.

Rishaab Chauhaan:

Rishaab’s honest take on nepotism adds a refreshing perspective to the ongoing debate in the industry. As he rightly pointed out, stardom isn’t inherited—it’s earned through hard work, perseverance, and most importantly, talent.

For now, Rishaab Chauhaan is focused on his role in Ishq Jabariya and carving his own path in the industry, without relying on family ties. And with his unique outlook, it’s safe to say he’s headed in the right direction.
