The Archies casting director talks about casting Suhana Khan, Khushi Kapoor ‘not because they’re star kids’

When the first announcement video of director Zoya Akhtar's upcoming project The Archies dropped on the internet a few months ago, the film industry was once again accused of favouring star kids over outsiders, as the film features Suhana Khan (daughter of Shah Rukh Khan), Khushi Kapoor (daughter of late Sridevi) and Agastya Nanda (grandson of Amitabh Bachchan). The casting drew some criticism, and now, the film's casting director Nandini Shrikent has said that each actor was auditioned multiple times before they were brought on board.
