Star Kids vs Kri Fam Kids

I watched Vismaya Mohanlal's interview, and she came across as incredibly calm, humble and grounded. Dulquer Salmaan also gives me a similar impression in most interviews. Considering they're children of two of the biggest legends in Malayalam cinema, you'd almost expect the opposite, but they seem remarkably low-key.

Then there's Ahaana Krishna and her sisters. They often come across as trying a little too hard to project an "elite" or "classy" image on social media, and sometimes it ends up feeling performative rather than effortless.

What I find funny is that you'd think the children of superstars would be the ones constantly reminding everyone of their status. Instead, the ones who actually have nothing to prove rarely do. Meanwhile, some others seem to behave like they're carrying around an invisible crown.

The only exception, for me, is Madhav Suresh. He doesn't quite give me the same grounded impression as Vismaya or Dulquer.

Another interesting coincidence is the political angle. Krishna Kumar and Suresh Gopi belongs to the same political party. I'm not saying there's any connection between political affiliation and personality. It's just something I happened to notice while thinking about these families.
