There are the “outsiders” in the Bollywood industry who come from a non-filmy background and have made it big on their own, and then there are star kids who became as successful as their family members. But, just because they belong to a filmy background, doesn’t guarantee they’ll make it big. While Hrithik Roshan, Ranbir Kapoor, Varun Dhawan and Sunny Deol have regularly delivered box office hits, There are some star kids whose careers took a downturn and they failed to make a mark for themselves. Let’s take a look at the star kids who failed to make a mark at the box office as lead actors.
