Netflix's 'The Ba***ds Of Bollywood' Preview: Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan makes a smashing directorial debut with a whacky show
The preview of Netflix's The Ba***ds of Bollywood hints at a show that's fast-paced, set in a stylised yet chaotic world, laced with self-aware humour, and a tongue-in-cheek tone. It's the ultimate underdog story that asks: how far will you go for your dream, what are you willing to lose, and can you survive a few Bollywood baddies along the way (pun totally intended!)
Shah Rukh Khan introduced the cast of the show in his inimitable style and playful humour, including Bobby Deol, Lakshya, Sahher Bambba, Manoj Pahwa, Mona Singh, Manish Chaudhari, Raghav Juyal, Anya Singh, and Vijayant Kohli with Rajat Bedi and Gautami Kapoor—all of whom shared insights into their characters and experience shooting this cheeky, no-filter series.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
In a moment that had the crowd buzzing, Shah Rukh Khan and Aryan Khan took the stage to introduce the world of The Ba***ds of Bollywood. Aryan spoke about creating a story inspired by real emotions and human ambition, saying, 'With The Ba***ds of Bollywood, I wanted to build a world that feels alive, a mix of glitz and grit, where ambition shines, egos clash, and nothing is ever as it seems. In Netflix, we found a partner who shared our creative vision—helping us tell the story exactly how it needed to be told, raw, stylised, and something the world has never experienced before.'
Shah Rukh Khan reflected on the pride of watching a new voice emerge, 'It's a proud moment to see Aryan carve out his vision with such clarity and edge. This is storytelling that's sharp, self-aware, and unapologetically bold, and I think audiences on Netflix will connect to the heart of it as much as its style.'
The show boasts off cameos by Karan Johar, Salman Khan, and Ranveer Singh, and is all set to release on September 18.

When Aryan Khan's The Ba***ds of Bollywood actor Lakshya spoke about him after Kill screening: ‘Perfect example of…'
Like Shanaya Kapoor, Lakshya is one newcomer whose Bollywood debut kept getting pushed. He was initially going to begin his journey with Janhvi Kapoor and Kartik Aaryan's Dostana 2, but the project was shelved. Karan Johar then announced Lakshya as one of the leads, alongside Shanaya, in Bedhadak. But that film was also shelved. In 2024, Lakshya finally made his Bollywood debut with Kill, leaving a lasting impression on audiences. Up next, he will be seen as the hero of Aryan Khan's directorial debut show, The Ba***ds of Bollywood. But what does Lakshya think of Shah Rukh Khan's son? Aryan Khan with Lakshya and Mona Singh A year ago, during an interview with Fever FM, Lakshya opened up about his friend and now director Aryan Khan. When asked if he has ever felt a difference between nepo and non-nepo artists, Lakshya shared, 'Difference I think bahar waale log zyaada banate hain. Andar kuchh hai nahi. Because aadhe toh mere dost hi hain saare. Janhvi (Kapoor), Shanaya (Kapoor), Ananya (Panday), Agastya (Nanda). Aur itne sahi log hain naa yeh. Itne correct hain, koi complications nahi hai, koi insecurities nahi hain. Apna kaam karte hain aur tameesdaar log hain. Aryan (Khan) humaare dost hain. Aryan was there in the screening and I made him meet my parents. And my father said 'He doesn't look like he's Shah Rukh Khan's son'. Like woh pair wair (proceeded to make the gesture of touching feet), matlab he's just a perfect example of how a boy should be.' Raghav Juyal, who was the villain of Kill and will be seen as Lakshya's best friend in Aryan's show, chimed in and added, 'Bohot tehzeeb, usse naa bohot culture diya hua hai Aryan ko.' Well, clearly Aryan not only won his star cast over with a well-written show, but also his charming personality. Also starring Bobby Deol and Sahher Bambba in the lead with epic cameos by Salman Khan, Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar, Aryan's show The Ba***ds of Bollywood is set to arrive on Netflix on September 18.
