Kangana Ranaut also expressed her admiration for Aryan's decision to venture into direction instead of acting, calling it a wise choice. Taking to her social media, Kangana praised Aryan for "taking the road less travelled in a post that read, "It is great that children from film families are going beyond just wanting to wear makeup, lose weight, doll up and think they are actors. We need more people behind the cameras, good that Aryan Khan is taking the road less travelled."
Aryan's sister, Suhana Khan, shared her excitement in a post on Instagram, writing, "Sooo excited," and adding, "Lots of laughs, drama, action and a little bit of trouble – just like it always is with you. I cannot wait! So proud."
Meanwhile, her close friend Ananya Panday also expressed her enthusiasm, writing on Instagram, "Oh, you are so not ready for this. Excited for you, Aryan!" Shanaya Kapoor posted, "You star! So proud. Cannot wait for this."
Karan Johar, who is a close friend of Shah Rukh, shared a heartfelt message of support, saying, "Love you, Aryan!!!! I am so so so so proud of you and can’t wait for the world to see your incredible series. It's going to rock and roll."
Other Bollywood stars like Alia Bhatt, Maheep Kapoor, and Bhavana Panday also sent their wishes to Aryan, with Alia Bhatt writing, "Can't Wait" on her Instagram. The series, which is set for release in 2025, promises a fresh and entertaining take on the Bollywood industry, blending humour with high-stakes drama.
