Talking to Hindustan Times, Apurva explains how film families prefer their favourite over talented outsiders, Justifying them he said, "Obviously they have their favourites and have every right to work with the ones they like. The problem is when they gang up to oust an actor or a technician from not just their movie, but from the entire ecosystem."
He also explained how influential people sabotage outsider’s career, and added that when an actor or technician walked out due to creative differences, the egos' call other 'egos' and tell them not to work with the person.
The filmmaker even stated that kingpins use media against the talent and plant negative articles against them.
Asrani revealed how PeeCee was ignored in 2012, and explained, "She had given two big hits - Barfi and Agneepath - in just one year, but the front page of a city newspaper carried a headline saying that no hero wanted to work with her. They weren’t giving her due, she wasn’t able to grow as an actor and a star."
