Aryan Khan introduces debut directorial in Shah Rukh Khan style, promises rollercoaster ride

After months of anticipation and hype, the first look of Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan’s debut directorial, Ba***ds of Bollywood, was unveiled on Sunday. Aryan introduced the show in quintessential SRK style and by the looks of it, it is surely going to be one hell of a rollercoaster ride, that too through the underbelly of Bollywood!

The promo opens with Aryan reciting the famous Ek ladki thi deewani si line from SRK’s Mohabbatein and introducing his leads, Lakshya Lalwani and Sahher Bambba. However, things soon go topsy-turvy and Aryan announces a major plot twist, giving the audience an idea of how the show will not be a regular Bollywood watch.

“Thoda jyada ho gaya na? Aadat daal lo. Kyunki mera show bhi thoda jyada hai,” he announced, and thus began a journey into the murkier insides of the tinsel town, hidden behind all the glitz and glamour. Sharing the promo, SRK wrote on his X handle, “Aap ne maanga aur Netflix ne poora kar diya….yeh thoda zyaada ho gaya nahi? Par aadat daal lo…..kyunki….The Ba***ds of Bollywood Preview will be out on August 20 (sic).”

The promo also gave glimpses of Mona Singh, Manoj Pahwa, and a backshot of who fans assumed to be Ranveer Singh. SRK’s cameo in the show has been kept under the wraps for now.
