IIt was a night of glamour, pride, and heartfelt emotion at YRF Studios as Aryan Khan, son of superstar Shah Rukh Khan, unveiled the trailer of his debut Netflix series, The Ba***ds of Bollywood. Stepping into the industry for the first time as a writer and director, Aryan was warmly introduced to audiences in an evening that blended star power with family pride.
The event was a glittering affair, with the full cast and crew of the series in attendance. Shah Rukh Khan himself played host, filling the evening with his trademark wit and charm while introducing the show as a playful, irreverent take on the madness of Bollywood’s showbiz culture. Yet, the most stirring moment came when he introduced Aryan to the public as a director for the very first time. With visible emotion, he urged the audience to applaud and bless his son as he embarked on this new journey.
When Aryan took the stage, he humbly bowed before the audience and admitted it was his first time addressing such a gathering, asking for patience should he falter. He then extended heartfelt gratitude to the entire team behind the project—thanking Netflix for its support, Red Chillies Entertainment and T-Series for backing the vision, and the cast and crew for their hard work in bringing The Ba***ds of Bollywood to life.
The most touching moment came when Aryan welcomed his mother, Gauri Khan, onto the stage, thanking her for her support as the producer of the series. The sight of Shah Rukh, Gauri, and Aryan together drew warm applause, symbolising both a personal and professional milestone for the family.
The trailer, now live on YouTube, promises a bold and satirical exploration of Bollywood’s underbelly, laced with dark humour and sharp insider wit. Social media has already buzzed with reactions, with fans praising Aryan’s courage and pointing to cryptic sequences that hint at a personal connection.
Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and co-written by Bilal Siddiqi and Manav Chauhan, The Ba***ds of Bollywood is set to premiere on Netflix on September 18, 2025.
This wasn’t just a trailer launch—it was a warm welcome for a debutant filmmaker making his first mark, supported by family, celebrated by the industry, and eagerly watched by fans.
