Suhana Khan, daughter of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, has found herself at the center of another round of trolling, this time over her appearance in a phone advertisement. After her much-anticipated debut in Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies (2023), where she played the character of Veronica, Suhana was criticized and compared to her father, with many attributing her performance to nepotism rather than talent. Now, a year later, the young actress is back in the news after netizens reacted negatively to her recent commercial appearance.
In the advertisement, Suhana delivers a single dialogue before the ad transitions into a music video, showcasing her dance moves. While the smoothness of her dance was noted, it was her screen presence that became the focal point of criticism. Many viewers took to social media to express their dissatisfaction with her performance, claiming that Suhana lacked “charisma” and “screen presence.” One commenter criticized her by saying, “Man, she has negative screen presence. She’s in the front yet your attention goes to side characters.”
Other users were even more direct in their remarks. “These new nepo girls have NEGATIVE screen presence, like it’s not even funny!” one user wrote, while another stated, “She just has no charisma, no screen presence. She could fade in the background and nobody would notice. Very bland and blah.” Some even suggested that Suhana’s famous last name couldn’t help her escape the fact that she did not have the natural aura needed to be a star. “You can tell someone isn’t star material when you immediately start paying more attention to background actors,” another troll commented.

Despite the backlash, it’s worth noting that judging an actor based on one advertisement may not be entirely fair. Suhana is still in the early stages of her career, and many argue that her abilities should be assessed in more substantial roles. In fact, Suhana will soon share the screen with her father Shah Rukh Khan in the upcoming film King, a project that has generated excitement among fans. This film is expected to be a significant opportunity for Suhana to showcase her acting skills and possibly change minds about her on-screen presence.
Meanwhile, Suhana’s older brother, Aryan Khan, is also preparing to step into the limelight, working on his directorial debut that will stream on an OTT platform soon.
While trolling continues to be a challenge for star kids like Suhana Khan, it remains to be seen whether the young actress can prove herself on her own merit in the coming years. For now, fans and critics alike will be waiting to see how she fares alongside her superstar father in King.
