What does The Ba***ds of Bollywood stand for?
Anchor Maneish Paul asked Shah Rukh Khan, "Sir, how do we read or pronounce it? Bads of Bollywood or Bhadas of Bollywood?" Shah Rukh Khan in return asked, "Tu Bata Kya Padhna Hai (You tell me how to read it."
"This is Bads of Bollywood," said Shah Rukh Khan also pointing out that 'Aryan has told me don't reveal anything about the show.'
"My son and daughter, both of them studied abroad. They lived colleges, towns, flats. So, I think they have mixed their experience, they have created a show on people who come to Mumbai what they go through, and how it is done. It's very funny. It's not just the good, it's not just the ugly, it's not just the worst, it's not the best, it's the BAD!"
At the event, Shah Rukh Khan shared an anecdote from Suhana and Aryan's growing up years. "The environment where Suhana and Aryan grew up, they used to see Adi (Aditya Chopra), Hrithik (Roshan), Karan (Johar) at our house all the time. They used to wonder, "Sab kya TV pe kaam karte hai (Does everyone work in TV?)," said Shah Rukh Khan.
Shah Rukh Khan shared that the actors, who worked in Aryan's show, love him and collaborated with him for the sheer love for him.
