Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan took to social media to celebrate his daughter Suhana Khan’s acting debut in ‘The Archies’ which will be released on Netflix.
Set in the 1960s, the musical drama is being directed by Zoya Akhtar and headlined by an exciting fresh ensemble. The film will feature Mihir Ahuja, Dot, Khushi Kapoor, Suhana Khan, Yuvraj Menda, Agastya Nanda and Vedang Raina in key roles.
Sharing the video on his Instagram account, Shah Rukh Khan told Suhana to remember that she is never going to be perfect. He also advised her to not let the applause get to her head.
“Remember Suhana you are never going to be perfect… but being yourself is the closest to that. Be kind and giving as an actor… the brickbats and applause is not yours to keep… the part of you that gets left behind on screen will always belong to you… you have come a long way baby… but the road to people’s heart is unending… stride forth and make as many smile as you can. Now let there be Light… Camera and Action!”, Shah Rukh wrote.
In another note, he said, “From renting the Archie’s Digest for 25 paise per day from book rental stores to see Zoya Akhtar make this come alive on screen….is just incredible. Wishing all the little ones the best as they take their first little steps into the most beautiful of professions.”
