Why nepotism doesnt work in sports


Recommended Posts

Success/failure is measurable in sports, unlike the rest. So, a failed candidate irrespective of their background can’t survive.

Acting lo and Politics lo mast dabbulu..

India lo sports persons earn chesedi enta..?

cricketers aite maximum 200-300cr....dani tarvata what...

inka rest of the sports aite ..talking is also waste...

movies and politics lo always limelight lo untu..dabbul baaga mingochu...sports ante prove cheskovali, talent to poti padali. unlike Movies and politics where just backing is enough...

money is not the point... movies lo kooda you wont earn a lot compared to politics ... cinema ki 5-10 crores eskunna kooda you get only about 200 crores (thats a huge stretch and very liberal numbers) in one lifetime ...

yeah exactly... also sports lo you matter alone by yourself.. cinema lo you can have a good director, cast, crew story and the movie can fare well and andhulo an actor's bad acting can be overlooked... same with politics in most cases... but sports lo you either perform or you are out...

In politics, kids of politicians can become politicians; in some cases, they can get lucky: Indira Gandhi (Nehru's daughter), HD Kumaraswamy (Devegowda son), Stalin (karunanidhi son), etc.  For these kids, they have a range of possibilities: MLA/MP, state minister, chief minister to union minister. In sports, you don't have that many possibilities: just a national team. Of course, Sachin can buy a team for himself and make his son captain; if his team doesn't perform well, no one wanna watch them or he can buy a stadium and play there (that's the equivalent of a politician's son becoming MLA in his constituency).

Same thing applies in the business too: here, parents can pave the way for his son to take over the business, like Mukesh Ambani, Tatas.  Some times, these experiments can ruin the fortunes of their multi billion dollar empires. That's why billionaires in the West follow a different strategy than giving reins to their kids: setting up a private investment office, run by professionals; sending monthly checks to kids, grandkids (trust fund babies). This is a best strategy for kids of the super wealthy.

sportsmen have huge team backing them up. the greater spark they show while young, the more likely they attract a great team. and the more they succeed. its a self serving circle.

sportspeople are not alone.

200 crores jujubi endhi lavada.... peddha actors like MB, PK, NTR take what? maybe 10-15 crores per film these days and yearly one movie chestharu ... so their salary is 15 crores per year and hardly they will be that active at the top for 10 years more anthe... pani max 300 crores.. but not in 1000s of crores in movies.. inka other heroes ki antha bomma ledu elago..

India lo nepotism is a very big thing... all the politicians (most of them, probably 90%) are kids of politicians from the past... most of the actors (and actresses in hindi industry) are all kids of actors/actresses from previous generations. But barely a handful of them in sports are kids of sportsmen...  what does this trend tell us? Ante politics ki and movies ki talent akkarledhu but if given enough time they will all shine with a bare minimum talent and brains and with a lot of push from their parents and money?  I know few actors like tarak ratna, ramesh babu, etc are not successful despite coming from movie background and also probably some politicians too. However this failure rate is a lot higher in sports and I cant even think of one single famous sportsperson that is via nepotism (atleast in India)... 

Discuss.... pour in your opinions on this

True!! also Cricketers are keenly followed and the star kids have immense pressure to perform right from the start of the career.

power structures are different. movies/politics you have business people who are interdependent, and can easily negotiate quid pro quo.

sports selection is now done by former sportspeople, who don't have the same level of savvy at forming and leveraging networks for their kids benefit. hehe..

also Ram Charan is not a 'successful' star. once chiranjeevi fans get old, someone new will be the big star.

ram charan will never be that star.
