Mahesh Bhatt's Verdict On Aryan Khan Earlier
In an exclusive conversation with NDTV recently, veteran filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who directed Shah Rukh in Chaahat (1996) and Duplicate (1998), shared his views on Aryan Khan's debut and the pressure that star kids face these days.
He said, "I think there is pressure around the person and the family. But I think Shah Rukh is very sane. He is a person who has the status of a superstar, and he has endured it for years; it's because of the mettle that he has. It's not something you can borrow from your box-office figures. It is just there. He came with it when he walked in front of the camera for the first time."
He added, "The environment at home must have given the child (Aryan Khan) all the mental support needed to go out there and face one irreversible harsh truth that's applicable to all entertainers throughout time: this world hates failure and worships success."
Mahesh Bhatt concluded by saying that anyone can come to the film industry and be embraced. He reiterated how it happened with Shah Rukh Khan, so if Aryan Khan has it too, he will "sparkle."
In A Nutshell
Last night was a star-studded affair in Mumbai as the biggest celebrities attended the premiere of The Ba***ds Of Bollywood.
