EXCLUSIVE: Before Shah Rukh Khan's King, Arshad Warsi works with son Aryan Khan; to feature in a crucial role in The Ba***ds Of Bollywood

Earlier this year, there was a lot of excitement generated over Arshad Warsi signing King, one of the most awaited films of Bollywood. It features Shah Rukh Khan in a leading role along with several other prominent actors. It also marks the first time Arshad is working in a film fronted by SRK.

But it is Ivar – the black adopted son of the factory owner Bjorn (Øyvind Brandtzæg) – who gets under his skin. A wannabe actor slumming it courtesy of dad, he’s an unbridled karaoke diva and early-morning buster of moves in the factory car park, even with Robert’s dorm-mate Marek (Jakub Sierenberg) heckling him.
