SRK and his son Aryan to dub for film
By Dinesh Kamath

Aryan Khan is all set for his debut movie with his father Shah Rukh Khan. Aryan Khan is finally ready for his big screen debut. SRK himself had just dropped a huge hint about his kid’s break in his latest Instagram post. On the occasion of Father’s Day, the superstar posted a photo of himself sharing a father-son moment with Aryan, as they sport team India jerseys with Mufasa and Simba printed on their backs.
Will the film they are dubbing for be like the epic animated Disney movie ‘The Lion King’ or will there be something more to it than what meets the eye? Shah Rukh and his son were recently spotted at a recording studio, dubbing for this project. Thus Aryan is dubbing for the live-action film that is set to hit screens in July.
SRK will lend his voice to Mufasa and Aryan to Simba in the Hindi dubbed version of the film. The son of Shah Rukh Khan is currently studying to be a filmmaker and writer, and has no plans to come in front of the camera. The 21-year-old, however, has already gone behind the microphone.
This film will be a Hindi version of upcoming Hollywood film, The Lion King. This is the live-action version of the animated film that released in the year 1994. The 1994 film, directed by Jon Favreau of Iron Man and The Jungle Book fame, is a “family favourite” at SRK’s Mumbai home, Mannat.
Voicing the father-son duo of Mufasa and Simba has been a wonderful personal and professional moment for Aryan and Shahrukh who hopes families can make some happy memories together, watching The Lion King,
 Simba is the central character of The Lion King. Mufasa, Simba's father who dies early into the film remains a guiding force in his troubled son's life. And Aryan Khan, best-known for being SRK's son, plays him in the Hindi dub.
In 2004, Aryan, then seven-years-old, dubbed for Dash in The Incredibles - Shah Rukh Khan voiced Mr Incredible - and that's pretty much his only experience till date, barring a scene in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham in which he appears as the toddler version of his dad's character.
