Manoj Pahwa: SRK's 'Mannat' Calls and Aryan's Script Secrets

Manoj Pahwa recounted his initial reluctance to join the cast of 'The B***ds of Bollywood', a series directed by Aryan Khan. Pahwa disclosed that he had not auditioned for the part and had initially turned down the offer, citing the unusual practice of not being given a script beforehand.

He eventually accepted the role after his manager presented him with four different scripts, which he found compelling. Pahwa also shared fond memories of Shah Rukh Khan's hospitality, mentioning invitations to 'Mannat' for drinks. He observed that Aryan Khan also possesses a strong work ethic and a similar respectful demeanor towards others, echoing his father's professional conduct.

Pahwa highlighted that both Shah Rukh Khan and Aryan Khan demonstrate remarkable dedication, often working extended hours. He also noted their shared trait of being highly respectful and making those around them feel comfortable and valued, much like family.

Reflecting on the series' production, Pahwa expressed satisfaction with the final outcome and the respectful treatment received from the production team, including timely payments. He also noted that Aryan Khan's direction involved convincing him to perform scenes he was initially uncomfortable with, such as extensive use of expletives, with Aryan assuring him it would suit his delivery.
