Police ka beta police, chor ka beta chor aur actor ka beta actor. That’s the saying in B-town. With acting running in their genes, most of our star kids prefer making their name in the entertainment industry itself, especially the boys. But there are quite few star daughters who chose to stay away from the showbiz and made their name in different fields. Here’s a list of these pretty ladies who’ve not followed their parent’s steps.
Shweta Nanda
Daughter of: Jaya and Amitabh Bachchan
While everyone thought that the superstar’s daughter would be an actress, Shweta Nanda stayed away from the 70mm. Shweta Nanda is married to Nikhil Nanda and is a mother to two children, Agstya and Navya Naveli.
Riddhima Kapoor
Daughter of: Neetu and Rishi Kapoor
Coming from the Kapoor clan it’s almost impossible for this Kapoor girl not to be an actress. Riddhima Kapoor is married to businessman Bharat Sahni and is a mother to a lovely daughter, Samara Sahni.
Ekta Kapoor
Daughter of: Shobha Kapoor and Jeetendra
TV czarina Ekta Kapoor is the most powerful name in TV and now in the film industry. Her daily soaps have kept the audiences glued to the TV sets for more than a decade. She also experiments with her films like The Dirty Picture and Love Sex Aur Dhokha under her banner Balaji Telefilms. Ekta had always shown more interest in production than acting and with time she’s ruling ‘em both.
