Zoya Akhtar`s directorial ‘The Archies’ featuring Agastya Nanda, Suhana Khan and Kushi Kapoor among others, has released on OTT platform Netflix on December 7, 2023. After its release the movie got both positive and negative reviews. While some called it a perfect watch, a few called out  Zoya over nepotism. Responding to all the backlash, Zoya called the nepotism debate as ‘banal’

The filmmaker further said, “My dad (Javed Akhtar) came from nowhere and made a life for himself. I was born and bred in the industry, and I have every right to follow whatever I want to do. As part of his network and what he made, I know those people. What am I going to do, disown my dad because I want to be a filmmaker? Are you saying I can’t choose my profession? It makes no sense.”

A heartfelt coming-of-age story set in the idyllic backdrop of the 1960s, ‘The Archies’ takes viewers into the lives of a beloved group of teenagers. The movie is a joint effort amongst Netflix India, Tiger Baby, Archie Comics, and Graphic India.
