May he be very successful. My blessings to him. I love you the most. I’m so proud.

Elated and smiling cheerfully, Aryan replied, “I love you, naani, and I promise you that my next award will be dedicated to you. I promise,” which made Savita laugh. He also immediately got off the stage and went up to her to give her a lovely kiss, as the crowd reacted with an “aww” to their adorable bond.

The eldest of Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan’s three children, Aryan, 28, is a graduate of the School of Cinematic Arts at the University of Southern California (USC). Although he previously worked as a voice actor in Hindi versions of a few movies, such as The Lion King (2019) and Mufasa: The Lion King (2024), The Ba***ds of Bollywood marked his proper debut.

Starring Bobby Deol, Lakshya Lalwani, Raghav Juyal, Sahher Bambba, and Anya Singh in key roles, the show was produced by Aryan’s mother, Gauri, under the banner of their Red Chillies Entertainment. The series is now streaming on Netflix. In her review of the show, SCREEN’s Shubhra Gupta wrote, “Aryan Khan’s debut as a director is a mixed bag — while it entertains in parts, it deflates into seen-before ordinariness when it segues into showing us ‘the other side’ of the film industry.”
