Shah Rukh Khan recently shared his joy and pride over his son Aryan Khan who is embarking on his career as a writer and director with a Bollywood series set to premiere on Netflix. The streaming service also took to its social media to announce the exciting news. Actress Kangana Ranaut quickly responded to the post expressing her happiness for Aryan noting that he had chosen a different path than many other children of celebrities who often follow in their parents’ footsteps. Sharing the announcement on her Instagram stories, Kangana wrote, “It’s great that children from film families are going beyond just wanting to wear makeup, lose weight, doll up and think they are actors. We should collectively uplift the standards of Indian cinema; that is the need of the hour. Those who have resources often end up taking the easiest roads.” She critiqued those who opt for acting, arguing that many star kids haven’t made a significant impact on the industry. However, she praised Aryan’s decision to delve into filmmaking, stating, “We need more people behind the cameras. It’s good that Aryan Khan is taking the road less travelled. I look forward to his debut as a writer and filmmaker.” The series, produced by Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment is slated for a release in 2025.
