Mumbai: ‘The Ba***ds of Bollywood’, Aryan Khan’s directorial debut streaming on Netflix, is currently trending across social media.
After its massive success, Aryan is mulling making ‘The Ba***ds of Bollywood Season 2’.
Actor Rajat Bedi, who portrayed the character of Jaraj Saxena in the Netflix web series, confirmed in a recent interview that season 2 is on the cards.
“Yes, season two is happening. It’s in the works. I’m hopeful that audiences are going to see more of me in the second season.” Revealing how he was cast by Aryan Khan, Rajat shared, “One day, I got a surprise call from a colleague that Aryan is looking out for me. I was in Canada at that time. Aryan’s office got in touch with him and he told me that Aryan wants to meet me. I rushed to Mumbai. I remember the date also. It was December 21-22, 2022. Aryan came to receive me. He was very nervous about meeting me. He was planning for days about what he wants to talk to me,” Rajat was quoted as saying by News18.
“He was very sure that he wanted only me for the role. They had a casting director, who met the other actors. But when it came to me, I was the only actor Aryan met directly. If I didn’t do the role, he wouldn’t have this character in the show. I was so overwhelmed. But he had me at hello. I was getting an opportunity with SRK’s son and that too in his first venture. This show is going to go down in history. I wouldn’t care even if it was a small role,” he added.
‘The Ba***ds of Bollywood’, a satire on the entertainment industry, stars Lakshya, Bobby Deol, Raghav Juyal and Sahher Bambba in key roles.
The series also has cameos by Shah Rukh Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Salman Khan, Ranveer Singh, SS Rajamouli, Aamir Khan and several others.
