While speaking about Suhana’s growth as an artist on Raj Shamani's podcast, Karan Johar didn’t hold back his admiration. Having closely followed her journey, Johar revealed that he has watched Suhana’s student films and is deeply impressed with the dedication she brings to her craft. 

According to him, people will be surprised when they see the kind of artist she truly is. He emphasized that the world will eventually witness Suhana's full potential, especially with her upcoming film alongside her father.


Johar also said that Suhana possesses a solid artistic depth that will soon emerge in full force. He admitted that although people might think he’s biased due to his close bond with the Khan family, his admiration is rooted in genuine appreciation of her acting capabilities.

Directed by Siddharth Anand, King is shaping into a grand cinematic affair. As per an exclusive report by Pinkvilla, the film not only stars Shah Rukh and Suhana but will also feature Deepika Padukone in a significant role. The project combines the star power of three well-known actors, promising scale and substance. The screenplay is penned by Sujoy Ghosh, Suresh Nair, Sagar Pandya, and Siddharth Anand, while Abbas Tyrewala has been roped in for dialogues.
