Aryan Khan: Bollywood’s Badshah Shah Rukh Khan has been ruling the big screen for three decades. Now his son Aryan Khan is also starting his journey, but not with acting but with direction. Recently, the first look and teaser of a project called Badshah of Bollywood came out, which created a stir on social media. Initially, people thought that this is Aryan’s first web series which will come on Netflix. The teaser showed a new style of romance, drama, and action, which thrilled the audience.
Teaser started with Shahrukh’s voice
The teaser starts with a familiar voice. The famous dialogue of Shahrukh Khan’s film Mohabbatein “Ek ladki thi deewani si…” is heard. As soon as this line creates the atmosphere, Aryan Khan suddenly appears on the screen. He immediately tells the audience that his project will not be limited to just traditional romantic stories. Rather, it will have tremendous drama, action and love presented in a new way. This twist increased the interest of the audience even more.
Not a web series, but a brand ad film

When the discussion on social media intensified that Aryan was making a series for Netflix, the real truth came out. Ba**ds of Bollywood is actually not a web series but an advertisement for Aryan Khan’s luxury lifestyle brand D’yavol. It was shot like a film teaser, blurring the line between ad and cinematic story. Taking over the director’s chair for the first time, Aryan not only showed vision but also gave his own voice.
Aryan’s vision in direction
This advertisement was not just a brand promotion, but a sample of Aryan’s thinking. He showed how Bollywood stories can be conveyed to the young audience in a new way. This film-like advertisement also included a long list of actors. Stars like Lakshya Lalwani, Saher Bamba, Bobby Deol, Mona Singh, and Raghav Juyal were seen in it. Apart from this, many more Bollywood faces appeared in cameos, making this ad look even bigger.
Fans accepted Aryan as a hero
However, the real buzz was not just about the ad, but Aryan’s presence. His deep voice and confidence on screen reminded people of Shah Rukh Khan’s early days. Fans flooded social media with praise and said that Aryan should act in films.

But Shah Rukh Khan has already said that Aryan does not intend to act. He had told in an interview that there is already enough “competition” at home, and Aryan’s passion lies in the world behind the camera. According to Shah Rukh, his son wants to create stories and present visions, not stand in front of the camera.
A strong start
Even though it is not a web series, Aryan Khan has made a strong entry into the world of direction. His ad film looked no less than a big-budget movie trailer. He showed that he understands both the language of cinema and modern branding very well.
Ba**ds of Bollywood may not be a Netflix series, but it has put Aryan in the spotlight. In his first attempt itself, he has proved that he can go a long way in direction. Shah Rukh Khan’s legacy is now moving forward not just through acting, but also through new styles of storytelling and direction.
