\"Manoj Aryan Khan<\/a> is stepping into the spotlight not just as Shah Rukh Khan<\/a>\u2019s son, but as a young filmmaker determined to make his own mark. Veteran actor Manoj Pahwa<\/a>, who shared the screen with SRK in Josh (2000), calls Aryan the \u201cspitting image\u201d of his father, in looks, voice, and work ethic.In a chat with The Print, Pahwa said, \u201cAryan is following in his father\u2019s footsteps. He (Aryan) is a hardcore professional, a workaholic, and he works very hard just like SRK.\u201d <\/p>\n

Stars hail Aryan Khan for ‘Ba***ds of Bollywood’| Preview sparks rave reviews<\/p>\n

Now, with his directorial debut \u2018The Ba***ds of Bollywood\u2019 premiering on OTT from 18 September, Aryan is proving that talent and dedication run in the family.<\/p>\n

Pahwa highlights Aryan\u2019s high expectations and focus<\/p>\n

Manoj Pahwa emphasised that Aryan knew the pressure he carried, given his father\u2019s legendary status. \u201cAnd I am glad Aryan didn\u2019t take it lightly. He has put in every bit of effort in bringing this project to life,\u201d he said. The actor sees a reflection of SRK\u2019s commitment in Aryan\u2019s work. It\u2019s not just ambition but a genuine love for filmmaking that pushes the young director to give his best at every stage.<\/p>\n

Actor impressed by Aryan\u2019s creative character vision<\/p>\n

In the show, Pahwa plays the protagonist\u2019s uncle, an aspiring actor who hasn\u2019t found success in Bollywood. While supporting his nephew in the glitzy world of films, he also struggles with envy.Pahwa explained, \u201cWhen I first met Aryan and heard about the character and storyline, the experience was far beyond what I had anticipated. It was his first project. He is a young lad. I didn\u2019t expect that the narrations would be pitch-perfect. I was blown away in that first meeting itself.\u201d <\/p>\n

Aryan\u2019s perfectionism is visible during multiple retakes<\/p>\n

Working on set with Aryan was a refreshing experience, says Pahwa. He admired Aryan\u2019s insistence on multiple retakes to get every shot just right. \u201cHe is new to the field but he doesn\u2019t get satisfied easily. He would take multiple retakes until he was happy. I would call him a perfectionist,\u201d he said.Although repeated takes occasionally caused slight irritation, the final results made it worth the effort. \u201cBut, when we see the results, it\u2019s all worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clarification that show scenes not linked to incident<\/p>\n

A scene from the preview showed the protagonist behind bars, with a cop telling him not to worry because people become more famous after being imprisoned. Some fans speculated it referenced Aryan\u2019s 2021 wrongful arrest in a drugs case. Pahwa has now clarified, \u201cThere is no relation between the scene and the incident.\u201d He stressed that \u2018The Ba***ds of Bollywood\u2019 is purely fictional and not tied to real-life events.<\/p>\n
