Babil Khan - A Product Of Nepotism That Everyone Approves Of And Rightly So!
Despite having a lukewarm beginning, Babil Khan, the late Irrfan Khan's son, has become a household name due to his exceptional talent.
Starting from Kangana Ranaut¡¯s claims about Karan Johar being the flag bearer of nepotism to the global discourse about the abundance of gifted artists who are overlooked in favor of star kids, there is no shortage of talk around 'nepo kids'.
Over the past few years, we have witnessed a large number of star kids make their theatrical and streaming debuts. As an example, The Archies, which included star kids Suhana Khan, Khushi Kapoor, and Agastya Nanda, was just released, and the majority of people did not enjoy their acting. There have been concerns about their seeming lack of talent, even though they may have worked under enormous banners.
However, there have been exceptions as well.
Enter Babil Khan, Son Of Late Irrfan Khan
This individual, while arguably a product of nepotism in theory, truly settles the question with his exceptional talent.
Despite having a lukewarm beginning, Babil Khan, legendary actor Irrfan's son, has become a household name due to his craft and determination to give his best.
¡®Beta Kiska Hai¡¯
Being the son of a renowned actor, he is frequently praised by others who attribute part of his success to him being Irfan's son and inheriting his father's extraordinary skills. However, hard work is what makes a difference¡ªbeing Irfan's son can¡¯t be the only reason behind his success.
Babil Khan And His Projects
Although with just 3 releases in, the actor has managed to be in the spotlight. Babil started with the widely talked-about film Qala with a minor role as Jagan Batwal.
Then he went on to star in a Netflix film Friday Night Plan alongside Juhi Chawla. He played the role of a boy who goes partying while his mum is away and the aftermath of it is shown in the movie.
The Railway Men, Babil's third endeavor, is a web series in which he exhibited his talent and demonstrated how an actor can shine with a strong storyline. Babil Khan portrays Imaad Riaz in the web series, who starts his first day of work as a locomotive pilot at the Nishatpura Yard. It wouldn't be an overstatement to suggest that he became fully immersed in the role. He perfected the Bhopali accent without going overboard by making it sound caricaturist and embodies the gentle drive and innocence required for the character.
Babil's Public Appearances
While we're talking about Babil's abundance of talent, we also need to acknowledge his sweetness and humility. Have you seen the actor in public? Well, he comes off as a kind man, hailing from a great family. He meets celebrities with utmost respect and the most innocent smile; he also has the sweetest encounters with the paparazzi. Let's just say that he is a bright soul overall in addition to being a talented performer and his conduct speaks volumes about his upbringing.

Will Babil Be Able To Prove Himself In The Coming Years?
Given his performance in The Railway Men, it's safe to assume that, provided the right project and good selection of complex and meaningful roles, the actor will undoubtedly sparkle like a diamond. Considering how raw the actor is, working under large banners without a fantastic role would not be the best option. His inventiveness and talent need to be shown, not the director or producer he collaborates with. Going by his journey so far, it won't be wrong to say that he will take the legacy of his father forward and do him proud with his drive and zeal to do his best.
