The much-talked-about The Bads of Bollywood preview (The Ba***ds of Bollywood) is finally here, and it has already caught the attention of fans. Written and directed by Aryan Khan, son of Shah Rukh Khan, the series looks like a sharp, entertaining take on the Hindi film industry. The teaser dropped on Wednesday and has since gone viral, thanks to its witty digs, cameos, and larger-than-life style.
What’s In The Bads Of Bollywood Preview?
The Bads of Bollywood preview introduces Aasman Singh, played by Lakshya, who is seen getting his dream launch as an actor. The series appears to follow his rise in showbiz, with hints of both glamour and struggle. Viewers have already noticed the similarity with Zoya Akhtar’s Luck By Chance, but Aryan Khan gives it a more satirical edge.
Raghav Juyal plays the supportive best friend of Aasman. The two actors earlier worked together in Kill, though their dynamic here seems lighter and friendlier. Sahher Bambba features as the “nepokid,” while Bobby Deol seems to take on the role of her father.
The video is packed with fun cameos and clever self-references. Karan Johar makes an appearance, wearing a sweatshirt that reads, “I did nothing. I just got lucky.” This seems like a playful jab at the ongoing nepotism debate in Bollywood.
Fans also got a surprise when Salman Khan showed up in an angry cameo where he is heard saying, “Bakwas party.” Ranveer Singh pops up too and shouts his trademark line, “Bahut hard,” which instantly became a talking point online.
One climax moment shows Lakshya’s character behind bars. A policeman tells him not to worry because “cinema people become more famous after prison.” Many believe this is Aryan Khan’s self-aware nod to his own time in jail in 2022.
The Bads of Bollywood preview also shows action-packed visuals, cars flying across screens, and high-end VFX. The sets and production scale suggest Aryan Khan is aiming big with his debut.
The First Look Was Revealed Recently
Earlier this week, the first look was unveiled with Aryan Khan and the cast, alongside Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic dialogues in the background. Aryan ended the video by promising the show will deliver “bahut saara pyaar” and “thoda sa vaar” at Bollywood.
The series features Lakshya, Sahher Bambba, Bobby Deol, Mona Singh, Manoj Pahwa, Manish Chaudhari, Raghav Juyal, Anya Singh, and Gautami Kapoor. The Bads of Bollywood will start streaming on September 18.
