Sahher Bambba, who plays Karishma Talwar in Aryan Khan's directorial debut series, "The Ba***ds of Bollywood," has revealed that the climax of the show was kept a secret from the cast until the last moment. The series, a satirical take on the Hindi film industry, premiered on Netflix on September 18, 2025, and has garnered positive reviews for its direction, story, screenplay, and performances.

The climax involves a shocking revelation that Karishma Talwar and Aasmaan Singh (played by Lakshya Lalwani) share the same father, Ajay Talwar, portrayed by Bobby Deol. According to Sahher, director Aryan Khan intentionally withheld this information from the cast to preserve the impact of the twist and prevent it from influencing their performances, particularly the romantic dynamics between the characters.

In an interview with Etimes, Sahher Bambba shared her experience of trying to get hints about the ending from Aryan, but he remained tight-lipped. She stated that Aryan would tell her that she couldn't even imagine what the ending would be and would have to wait. She revealed that the cast was informed about the climax just half an hour before filming the crucial scene, leaving everyone stunned. Sahher recalled being unable to process the revelation after learning about it.

Even Suhana Khan, Aryan's sister, was present on set that day. Sahher admitted that the twist not only shocked the actors but also left her friends and family in disbelief. She stated that her friends were messaging her in all caps, empathizing with her character, Karishma Talwar, and that her mother was shocked when she watched it for the first time. Fans have also praised the ending, calling it one of the boldest for a debut series in recent times.

Sahher Bambba has also spoken about her confidence in Aryan Khan's direction. In an interview with Zoom, she mentioned that Aryan's conviction in the project gave her the confidence to transform into her character. She said that despite being a first-time director, Aryan's understanding of every department was incredible and that he was very clear in his scenes and what he wanted.

Furthermore, Sahher has praised Aryan Khan's acting skills, expressing her hope for his debut as an actor. She believes he is a great actor who can portray various characters in different ways and that his understanding of cinema is profound.

"The Ba***ds of Bollywood" marks Aryan Khan's debut as a director and writer.
