Salman Khan praises Aryan Khan’s directorial debut, Shah Rukh Khan jokes, ‘Or if Salman has a son’ |
At the star-studded Joy Forum event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan shared laughs, memories, and candid moments from their decades-long friendship and illustrious careers. Amid the conversations about films and camaraderie, Salman took a moment to commend Shah Rukh’s son, Aryan Khan.
Salman lauds Aryan Khan
“Aryan made a web show, The Ba***ds of Bollywood. It has done really, really well. So now his upbringing is the same! He did not want to… I would rather have him in front of the camera, and super serious father… and like I said earlier, Aryan will be the only person he will be happy with if Aryan succeeds him,” Salman said with a smile, clearly proud of the young filmmaker.
Shah Rukh’s playful response
Shah Rukh couldn’t resist a playful retort, laughing as he added, “Or if Salman has a son! Then I would like him to be the biggest star ever in the history of mankind. So we are working on that. But like Salman said, all the youngsters now are very video-literate and it has helped Aryan a lot.”
Directed by Aryan Khan, The Ba***ds of Bollywood is a satire on the Hindi film industry that explores power struggles within Bollywood and the hurdles faced by outsiders trying to stay relevant. Starring Lakshya and Sahher Bambba in lead roles, the show also features Anya Singh, Raghav Juyal, Bobby Deol, Mona Singh, and Manoj Pahwa in key roles. The sharp writing, performances, and cameo appearances have earned it glowing reviews. The show is currently streaming on online.
