All in the Family!

All-in-the-Family

Yes, it has been the unspoken rule - sometimes daringly declared, other times projected from scripted films, most times just fatefully assumed and accepted.

The fact remains that to be an 'IT' in tinsel town is no easy feat - and that in itself is practically an understatement. Why? Because goodwill and family name matters in Bollywood. There are always odd exceptions who break the rules, make a name for themselves and continue the trend with their next generations. What no one can deny is that being established after struggling pays off for a long, long time...

And so in tinsel town we witness a hierarchy of sorts, as in a little shining kingdom of the east! The names all over are blood-bound - there are parents and children, of more recent times, there are siblings, and even more recently, there are cousins! Yes we accept the heirloom-ish career-based kingdom the children of megastars inherit from just their mere surnames, but what becomes newer to explore is the trend of siblings and cousins.

The examples - many. And who? - Read on!
