Buckle up, Bollywood buffs! Bollywood Newshound Nisha here with the inside scoop on the latest star kid making waves in Tinseltown. Spoiler alert: it involves Aamir Khan’s progeny!
Aamir Khan’s Son Junaid Khan Shines in Debut Film ‘Maharaj’
Oh, the joys of nepotism! Aamir Khan’s son, Junaid Khan, has finally stepped into the limelight with his debut film, ‘Maharaj,’ and guess what? Daddy Khan is all praises! 🥳
The film, set against the backdrop of the 1862 Maharaj Libel Case, features Junaid as journalist and social reformer Karsandas Mulji. Imagine battling for women’s rights in the 19th century! Talk about a history lesson no one signed up for. 🙄
During an interview, Junaid spilled the beans about his dad’s reaction. "He liked the film. He saw the film a few months ago and he quite liked it," he said. Aamir Khan liking his son’s film? Shocking! Said no one ever. 😏
Junaid also opened up about how he usually gets feedback from his superstar father. "He normally lets us do what we want to do unless we ask for something very specific; then he gives advice." Translation: You’re on your own, kid, unless you royally mess up. 🥴
The young Khan is basking in the glory of the positive audience response and feels "grateful." He added, "So yeah, it’s quite satisfying; I guess all’s well that ends well," because, of course, no one loves a happy ending more than Bollywood!
The Yash Raj Films production ‘Maharaj’ faced a minor hiccup when its release was delayed. Initially slated for June 14, it finally saw the light of day on June 21 after the Gujarat Court lifted the stay order. Ah, Bollywood drama off-screen too! 🙃
The film isn’t just a one-man show. It also stars Sharvari Wagh, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Shalini Pandey, all under the directorial wand of Siddharth P Malhotra. If you’re curious, it’s streaming on Netflix. So, grab your popcorn and maybe a history textbook? 📚🍿
Meanwhile, Junaid is already busy with his next project, which remains untitled. The shooting is currently taking place in Delhi with Khushi Kapoor. Yes, more star kids! Who’d have thought?
Nisha’s Nutshell:
In Bollywood, it’s not just what you know, but who your daddy is! And remember, in the land of glitz and glam, even courtroom drama can’t stop a good film release. 🎬✨
Stay tuned, darlings! Bollywood Newshound Nisha will be back with more spicy scoops. 😘
