Shah Rukh Khan opens about son Aryan Khan’s debut, reveals Suhana will train for 3-4 years before first film

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has always been vocal about his children, Suhana and Aryan’s big Bollywood debut. While Suhana has already charmed fans with a sizzling photoshoot for the top fashion magazine, nothing much is known about the actor’s son Aryan’s interest in Bollywood. Spilling the beans about his kids’ Bollywood career, Shah Rukh Khan revealed that Aryan Khan doesn’t want to be an actor.

In a recent interview to to Mumbai mirror while promoting his upcoming film Zero, Shah Rukh Khan said, “Neither Aryan nor Suhana have been groomed to be actors.” SRK further claimed that while Aryan doesn’t want to act in films, Suhana does but she will have to train for a few years before she make her mark in Bollywood. He says, “she will go to an educational institute for three-four years to train in acting” after finishing school. “Gauri and I never told our kids that they have to grow up to be actors. People around would say handsome hai, tall hai, body achcha hai, but if looks were a criterion, I’d never have been an actor,” Shah Rukh continued.

The actor added that he would offer his children all the advice he could, with his 30 years’ worth of experience in the industry, but said that an actor should not be concerned about wearing nice clothes or driving nice cars. “If you want that then get into banking. It’s safer,” Shah Rukh said. This job is “about how happily, longingly, desperately and crazily you want to act.”

Suhana recently also starred in the play Romeo and Juliet in her school in which she played the leading lady. She also recently filmed a short movie along with her friends. Pictures from both the play and the short were shared online. Talking about his son, Shah Rukh revealed that Aryan wants to become a director, and he’s training for it in the US.
