Aryan Khan, son of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, is set to make waves in the industry by taking on the role of director. He will helm an upcoming series co-produced by Netflix and Red Chillies Entertainment, marking his much-anticipated entry into filmmaking.
Speculations about Aryan's directorial aspirations have been circulating for a while, but the official announcement has now been made by none other than Shah Rukh Khan himself. According to reports, further details about the project will be unveiled in the coming days, with whispers of a possible reveal event in Los Angeles adding to the buzz.
The untitled series is being produced under the Red Chillies Entertainment banner by Gauri Khan. Set against the backdrop of the film industry, Shah Rukh described the project as "all heart, all hustle." He shared his excitement on social media platform X, calling it a "special day."
“It's a special day when a new story is being presented for the audience. Today is even more special as @RedChilliesEnt and Aryan Khan embark on their journey to showcase their new series on @NetflixIndia. Here's to untamed storytelling… controlled chaos… gutsy scenes and lots of fun and emotions. Go forth and entertain people, Aryan, and remember, there's no business like show business!” Shah Rukh wrote.
Netflix also shared the announcement, hinting at a unique take on Bollywood with the caption, "Witness Bollywood like never before on Netflix." While the series' title and cast remain under wraps, rumors of surprise guest appearances, including a potential cameo by Shah Rukh himself, have fueled excitement among fans.
Aryan's foray into direction follows his sister Suhana Khan's debut in acting. Suhana recently appeared in Zoya Akhtar's Netflix film The Archies, based on the iconic comic series, further solidifying the Khan family's connection with the streaming giant.
With Aryan Khan stepping into the spotlight as a director, the project promises to be a fresh and intriguing addition to Netflix's Bollywood lineup. Fans are eagerly awaiting more updates, hoping for a glimpse of what Aryan has in store.
