This is what Shah Rukh Khan wants his kids to do…
The year 2017 could well be the year of star kids. With a host of them, popular and widely followed on social media, are gearing up to make an entry into showbiz. Their film debuts have been time and again discussed, and written upon. While Sridevi and Boney Kapoor's daughter, Jhanvi Kapoor, is rumoured to be making her debut alongside Varun Dhawan, Saif Ali Khan and ex-wife Amrita Singh's daughter, Sara Ali Khan, is said to have bagged a role opposite Hrithik Roshan.

However, one wonders what Shah Rukh Khan thinks about his children, Aryan and Suhana, making their foray into the world of movies. When asked whether he plans to create a launch-pad for them, SRK says, “If my kids love acting as much as I do, then they should be actors. I think Suhana likes acting a lot, and Aryan is more bent towards making films. He writes a bit and now he is studying filmmaking. There has to be a certain amount of education that they need before they can think of doing this."
The actor further adds, "I believe that just wanting to act without doing theatre or getting some sort of formal training might not work. I can share my experiences with them, but they should get exposed to an outside world which will teach them something new, instead of learning what I am doing and what already exists. An actor should bring something new to the table, and not what is already done. They should experience all that and figure it out for themselves. I believe you should love whatever you do. I hope they love it, and if they do, I hope they get an opportunity to be actors. It is not like I am chalking out their career path.”

Well, we can't wait to see Shah Rukh's children, Suhana and Aryan, foray into the film career.
