Ibrahim Ali Khan wins hearts while Veer Pahariya, Khushi Kapoor, and Junaid Khan drown in the nepo baby troll-fest

If you are even a little bit active on Instagram in the last few weeks, you've probably seen one of three things: Veer Pahariya dancing with unsuspecting theatre-goers, Khushi Kapoor and Junaid Khan's 'expressionless' promotion of Loveyapa, or Ibrahim Ali Khan stealing hearts in Nadaaniyan. In Bollywood's latest edition of 'Nepo babies take over,' one star kid seems to be thriving while the rest are getting cooked by the internet.

Veer Pahariya's PR marathon ends in trolling

Veer Pahariya, making his Bollywood debut in Sky Force alongside Akshay Kumar, has been going all out with his promotions. We're talking full-blown 'please notice me' levels¡ªshowing up at theatres, hyping himself up mid-screening, and randomly dancing to Rang with strangers. But instead of applause, the internet handed him a meme fest. One creator joked, ¡°Bro is putting in more effort into promotions than acting.¡±

Khushi and Junaid's viral 'no-acting' moment

Then there's Loveyapa duo, Khushi Kapoor and Junaid Khan, who became the internet's latest punching bags. A clip of them 'dancing' (read: awkwardly swaying) to their film's title track went viral for all the wrong reasons. One social media user pointed out, ¡°It's giving annual day rehearsals, not Bollywood debut.¡± Another sarcastically added, ¡°This is method acting. They are playing robots.¡±

Ibrahim Ali Khan enters the chat... and impresses?

While his fellow nepo-mates were getting dragged, Ibrahim Ali Khan made an entrance, and surprisingly, the internet didn't roast him¡ªat least not yet. His debut song Ishq Mein from Nadaaniyan has been receiving unexpected love. Many are vibing with its soft melody and calling it a refreshing throwback to old-school Bollywood romance.

A Bollywood enthusiast commented that Ibrahim's screen presence is giving 'main character energy' and compared his charm to his grandmother, Sharmila Tagore. Another user mentioned that the song feels like the 'beginning of a Bollywood romantic song revival.'

Will Ibrahim dodge the trolling?

With Nadaaniyan's release around the corner, the real test for Ibrahim is yet to come. Will he continue to impress, or will Instagram's trolling brigade come for him next? Either way, Bollywood's nepo saga continues, and we're all here for the drama.
