Dhoom 6 villain: Not SRK but his eldest son Aryan may just bag the role

If media reports are to be believed, Shah Rukh Khan’s Bollywood throne may have an heir: his eldest son, Aryan. Which means that some time in the near future, we can hope that when we hear a Khan is playing the role of a college kid, it’ll be Aryan rather his dad or his dad’s colleagues. Media reports claim Aditya Chopra is keen to cast Aryan as the villian in Dhoom:6 (weep! There are three more in the series!). While there has been no confirmation on whether Aryan has accepted the role, reports claim Daddy Dearest isn’t getting a Dhoom role as easily. The jury is out on who will be the Dhoom:4 villian — SRK or Salman Khan?

Aryan’s ‘friendship’ with Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter Navya Naveli was written about extensively. Every picture of him that surfaced on social media has been picked up by the press. In fact, he even had to deal with a scandal when a fake MMS of him and Naveli started doing rounds on the social media. As far as Bollywood is concerned, he’s already made his debut in a big banner film — Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. As a little boy, he had to face rejection too, when his soccer scene was edited out of Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. If all this makes it seem as though Aryan is doomed to live a fishbowl existence, there’s hope in the stories of a few other star kids who didn’t let their parents’ fame mess with their lives. Here’s a list of star kids who did great for themselves despite not taking up acting as a career. 1. Priya Dutt: Dutt has a degree in television production from the Center for the Media Arts in New York and yet chose to stay away from films and television. However, she did follow her parent’s footsteps and took up politics, if not acting.   [caption id=“attachment_1801151” align=“aligncenter” width=“620”]  Courtesy: ibn live[/caption]   2. Ekta Kapoor: She is the queen of Indian television and a very sharp business woman. Kapoor is the MD and the creative head of Balaji telefilms and has a monopoly over prime time tv slots. Her specialty are the saas-bahu soaps that has been wildly popular since 2000s. [caption id=“attachment_1801157” align=“aligncenter” width=“620”]  Courtesy: ibn live[/caption]   3. Sussanne Khan: Sussanne did follow a parent’s footstep but instead of choosing to follow her father’s, she choose to follow her mother’s and she is now an interior designer and has a design label called The Home Label.   [caption id=“attachment_1801161” align=“aligncenter” width=“620”]  Courtesy: ibn live[/caption]   4. Lucky Ali: Ali’s father may be one of the finest comedians in Indian film industry but he decided to concentrate on singing. Few might remember Mehmood as a singer but Ali fortunately inherited his voice. The singer created quite a stir with his pop albums in the late ’90s.

Rhea Kapoor: While Sonam Kapoor chose to be in front of the camera and sometimes torment us with her not-so-good performances, her sister and Anil Kapoor’s other daughter Rhea chose to be a producer. The two films that she has produced starred her sister, Sonam, in lead roles — Khoobsurat and Aisha.

Sanjana Kapoor: Shashi Kapoor’s daughter Sanjana did appear in a couple of films but for most of her life, she has promoted theatre. She ran Prithvi Theatre in Mumbai for many years and currently runs Junoon, a platform promoting arts and theatre among kids.
