The wait is finally over. Aryan Khan, son of superstar Shah Rukh Khan, unveiled the first look of his much-anticipated directorial debut, The Ba**ds of Bollywood*. The reveal immediately set social media abuzz, with industry friends and fans flooding timelines with support.
Among the most heartfelt tributes came from Karan Johar, who shared childhood stills of Aryan from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, writing:
“Love… @aryan is my first born from my heart and am so proud of his sincerity! His relentless hard work and how his mind works with mainstream masala and cool narrative energy in equal measure. … #badsofbollywood is on its way … hope you’re ready for this mega ride!”
Johar’s connection with the Khan family goes back decades, and his praise only amplified the anticipation. In fact, in a recent podcast, Karan had already hinted at Aryan’s talent:
“I have a huge belief in Aryan Khan’s directorial talent… If there is a King, there will be a Prince.”
The series stars Bobby Deol, Sahher Bambba, Lakshya, Manoj Pahwa, Mona Singh, Manish Chaudhari, Raghav Juyal, Anya Singh, Vijayant Kohli, and Gautami Kapoor. Early reports suggest it blends a nostalgic nod to old Hindi cinema with a cheeky, irreverent new-age narrative — signaling a generational storytelling shift.
🎥 The preview drops on August 20, with The Ba**ds of Bollywood* set to stream on Netflix soon after.
This marks a defining moment for Aryan Khan, who has chosen to step behind the camera rather than in front of it — carving his own identity in the world of cinema.
