A star-packed Mumbai launch introduced the satirical series’ cast, confirming Aryan Khan’s role as creator-director under Red Chillies.

Overview

  • Leads Lakshya and Sahher Bambba front the series with an ensemble featuring Bobby Deol, Raghav Juyal, Mona Singh and others, plus cameo appearances by Salman Khan, Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar.
  • Shah Rukh Khan hosted the Yash Raj Studios event, presenting the teaser and sharing a light quip about initially fearing a “Mannat CCTV on YouTube” concept before endorsing the show’s tone.
  • Netflix describes the project as a stylised, self-aware portrait of Hindi cinema that blends humour with drama, with Monika Shergill calling it a bold “roast-and-toast” to Bollywood.
  • Coverage notes a self-referential moment in the preview that appears to allude to Aryan Khan’s past legal scrutiny, reflecting the show’s meta sensibility.
