Larissa Bonesi Steals the Spotlight at The Ba**ds of Bollywood* Premiere, Fuelling Rumours About Aryan Khan

Brazilian model-actor Larissa Bonesi’s striking appearance and public praise for Aryan Khan’s Netflix directorial debut raise curiosity as the star-studded premiere rolls out in Mumbai.

The premiere of The Ba**ds of Bollywood*, Netflix’s much-awaited series directed by Aryan Khan, turned into a dazzling evening at Mumbai’s Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre on 17 September 2025. The event drew a host of Bollywood A-listers including Madhuri Dixit, Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor, Kajol, Ajay Devgn, Farah Khan, and Karan Johar. Aryan Khan walked in with his family—Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan, Suhana, and AbRam—all of whom posed for the cameras together and individually. Dressed in an all-black outfit with denim, a blazer, and a T-shirt, Aryan kept his look understated yet stylish.

But despite the glittering guest list, it was Brazilian model-turned-actor Larissa Bonesi who became the evening’s talking point. The rumoured girlfriend of Aryan Khan arrived in a glamorous off-shoulder black gown, posing solo for photographers. Though she did not walk in with Aryan, their coordinated black outfits sparked speculation, with many fans calling it a subtle style statement. Larissa has previously shown support for Aryan on social media, once sharing his show’s first-look poster with a note calling him “unstoppable, unmatched, and truly World’s #1,” a post Aryan himself re-shared.

Larissa, who began modelling at a young age before moving to India, has worked in Bollywood and Telugu cinema. Her film credits include Go Goa Gone (2013), Thikka (2016), Next Enti? (2018), Netflix’s Penthouse (2021), and the recent thriller Ghaati (2025). She has also appeared in several popular music videos such as Benny Dayal’s “Are U Coming” and Vishal Mishra’s “Aao Naa.”

Meanwhile, The Ba**ds of Bollywood* marks Aryan Khan’s directorial debut and has been produced under Red Chillies Entertainment by Gauri Khan. Co-created and co-written with Bilal Siddiqi and Manav Chauhan, the Netflix series stars Lakshya Lalwani, Bobby Deol, Sahher Bambba, Raghav Juyal, Mona Singh, and Manish Chaudhari, among others. The show officially premiered on 18 September 2025 and is already creating a stir for its bold storytelling and ensemble cast.
