There are chances but not necessarily. Be regular with your diet and exercise. Avoid fast food and too many sweets. Do Yoga and pranayam maintain the immunity of body by having one aamla in any form daily with sat giloya. God willing yoou will lead healthy life.

Thanks for choosing health care magic.

It is not compulsory to be hereditary.Diabetes is a disease has got strong genetic link.The first degree relatives of patients are at high risk of developing diabetes in comparison to general population.so there is a chance but on can not take it for granted that it will happen.After you reach age of 35,please get your sugar checked regularly and maintain a healthy life style,do not put on too much of weight,eat healthy and i think you can reduce the chances.
