Bollywood’s next-generation filmmaker Aryan Khan is gearing up for a major cinematic milestone! According to industry sources, the young director is all set to helm his first theatrical film in 2026 — marking his official entry into the big-screen space.
A source quoted by Pinkvilla shared, “Aryan wants to deliver a theatrical success and prove himself as a filmmaker before taking on the challenge of directing his superstar father, Shah Rukh Khan. His aim is to let his work speak for itself.”
The insider added that Aryan is taking a measured and disciplined approach to his directorial journey, emphasizing strong scripts, innovative storytelling, and cinematic scale. His upcoming film, expected to hit theatres in 2026, will reportedly serve as a stepping stone to a far more ambitious project — his much-awaited collaboration with Shah Rukh Khan.
Yes, you read that right! The father-son duo is set to come together for a film in 2027. “If all goes as planned, Aryan’s third directorial will feature Shah Rukh Khan in the lead. The two have already locked the core idea, but the project will take shape only after Aryan’s next film is complete,” the source revealed.
While details about the 2026 project are still under wraps, expectations are sky-high, with many eager to see Aryan’s cinematic vision unfold on the big screen.
