What advice does SRK give Aryan and Suhana? When a fan asked what advice he gives his children about their careers Shah Rukh smiled and said he prefers not to tell them too much. “I don’t tell them much because I think there is not much need to tell anything to creative people” he shared. “I have been working in films for 35 years so I know I come with a big baggage. ‘Arre yaar papa ki to sunni padegi kyunki who Shah Rukh Khan hain’ (Will have to listen to papa because he is Shah Rukh Khan). I don’t want them to have that baggage.” He explained that both Aryan and Suhana are finding their own paths Suhana as an actor Aryan as a writer and director and he trusts them to follow their instincts. “They do it themselves” says SRK The actor further added “With Suhana in acting and Aryan in writing and direction they do it themselves. And when they need they ask me how something is looking. And I tell them a point of view. Sometimes it’s good and sometimes bad. But I tell them tum wohi karo jo tumhe karna hai (You do what you want to do).” It was a rare glimpse into Shah Rukh’s parenting philosophy allowing his children to explore their creativity freely while being there as a quiet guide when needed. Where are Aryan and Suhana in their careers now? Suhana Khan made her acting debut in 2024 with Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies a modern take on the beloved comic book series.
