Aryan Khan to assist Karan Johar on Takht

Fans always get excited whenever star-kids make their debut on silver screen and take their parents’ legacy forward. If we talk about which is the next star-kid the audience is all agog to see making a debut in filmdom, then it has to be none other than Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan.

Well, the suave and handsome Aryan Khan is indeed entering the Hindi film industry, but he has taken a different route to make his debut. According to reports, filmmaker Karan Johar, who is very close to the Khan family, has brought Aryan onboard to assist him on his forthcoming directorial venture, Takht.


The big-ticket film, which Johar announced last year, is a period drama featuring an ensemble cast including Ranveer Singh, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, and Bhumi Pednekar. Aryan, who is more interested in filmmaking than acting, will assist Dharma Productions’ head on his ambitious project.

Takht has screenplay by Sumit Roy, while Hussain Haidry has penned the dialogues. Set to begin production towards the end of the year, the movie is scheduled to buzz into theatres in 2020.

Bonnie Greer, playwright who never lost her edge, dies at 77

Bonnie Greer left Chicago's South Side wanting to be a lawyer, until a professor told her outright that he didn't think women belonged in law. She switched to theatre instead, studied under David Mamet in Chicago and Elia Kazan at New York's Actors Studio, and by the late 1970s was living in Manhattan's West Village. Then AIDS started taking her friends, one after another, and by 1986 she'd had enough. A production brought her to the Edinburgh Festival that year. She stayed in Britain for good, telling the Sunday Times two decades later that the move had saved her life — she needed, in her words, to "escape the shadow of death."

That's the Bonnie Greer most obituaries will lead with: American, Black, an outsider who came to Britain running from something. What's stranger, and more interesting, is what she became once she got here.
