Star kids stepping into the public eye always spark comparisons, and the internet is currently doing just that. Recently, two prominent star children are generating buzz, not for acting, but for their directorial debuts. One is Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Aryan Khan, and the other is Vijay’s son, Jason Sanjay. Here is a look at how their initial works are being compared.

Aryan Khan, SRK’s son, made his creative debut with The Bads of Bollywood, which has already premiered on Netflix and received positive feedback. Now, Vijay’s son Jason is preparing to release his film Sigma, starring Sandeep Kishan. The teaser for Sigma recently arrived, and it is now being measured against the sound and impact of Aryan’s The Bads of Bollywood teaser when it first appeared.

The teaser for The Bads of Bollywood certainly caught everyone off guard with its sharp tone and confident presentation. Its slick editing, dark humor, and self-satirical approach to the film industry proved highly effective. In contrast, Jason Sanjay’s Sigma teaser sounded much like many other action films produced in the South, leading to a mixed reception. It felt more generic and lacked the immediate impact in its sound design and emotional appeal that Aryan’s teaser delivered.

However, not every director creates an immediate draw with their teasers and trailers, as some filmmakers manage to surprise audiences once their full movies are released in theaters.
