Shah Rukh Khan's son, Aryan Khan, who is studying filmmaking in the US is all set to foray in Bollywood. Shah Rukh Khan's best friend, Karan Johar calls himself the 'Godfather' to the former's children - Aryan Khan, Suhana Khan and AbRam Khan.
According to a report in Pinkvilla, Aryan Khan will assist Karan Johar on the sets of his next directorial, Takht. Johar has been saying that he will launch Shah Rukh and Gauri Khan's kids in Bollywood, in some way or the other, reports the entertainment portal.
While Aryan has the looks to die for, the star kid's heart lies not in acting but direction. Commenting on it, Shah Rukh Khan earlier told the media, "Aryan doesn't want to be an actor, he wants to make films, become a director and is training for it in the US."
What better ground for training than Karan Johar's historical drama, Takht?
