Another user comment on the post, "Are you saying We missed seeing her as alamzeb for that bland expressionless nepo kid . This is so unfair." People felt that Shivangi would have been perfect for the role of Alamzeb. Some feel that nepotism always comes in middle while some also believe that it must have not been Heeramandi.
