Bollywood fans had plenty to celebrate as Aryan Khan’s The Bads of Bollywood brought together a glittering lineup of stars — from Ranveer Singh to Karan Johar — with even Tollywood’s ace director S.S. Rajamouli making a surprise cameo that left viewers stunned. A quirky debate scene over whether idli or vada pav is the better snack even went viral, adding to the buzz.
Marking Aryan Khan’s directorial debut on Netflix, the series starts off with Gen Z-style dialogues, high-energy moments, and cameos that keep the excitement alive in the early episodes. However, as the episodes progress, the runtime begins to feel stretched, and the pacing slows, leaving later portions of the series dragging.
Positioned as a satire on Bollywood, the show dives into themes of nepotism, industry politics, and the way films are critiqued. Performances are a mixed bag — Raghav Juyal stands out with a convincing act, while Bobby Deol falls short of making an impression. Talented names like Mona Singh (best known for her role as Kareena Kapoor’s sister in 3 Idiots) and Gautami Kapoor are left underutilized, making some parts of the narrative feel wasted.
Though the writing offers sharp wit in places, the storytelling struggles to maintain focus. By the finale, the satire fizzles, humor thins out, and the ending fails to land with impact.
While Aryan Khan’s debut does showcase moments of clever insight and bold commentary, viewers are divided — some applaud his wit and courage, while others find the uneven pacing and weak conclusion a missed opportunity.
