In the same interview, Manoj Pahwa was asked if he had seen any similarities between Shah Rukh and his son, Aryan Khan. To this, he mentioned that just like Shah Rukh, Aryan is also a workaholic and can even work for 18-20 hours if required. He also added that Shah Rukh is someone who always treats everyone equally, and a similar kind of generosity can also be found in Aryan Khan. Manoj can be quoted as saying:
"I know Shah Rukh works 18-20 hours a day if required. He is a workaholic, and I have seen Aryan work in a similar fashion too. He is Khan Sahab today because he has what it takes to be the Khan Sahab. If you are working with him, or even if you are just standing in front of him, Shah Rukh will respect and love you with all his heart.”
Manoj, in the same interview, added how Shah Rukh Khan takes care of his guests and that Aryan has the same qualities in taking care of everyone around him.

"Whenever he came on to the sets, he enquired about our well-being and wanted to know if we were well taken care of by the production. In fact, during the filming of the climax, which was happening on a very expansive scale with 2-3 units, he started to take a few shots too.”

Earlier, a report by BollywoodLife mentioned that Stardom might document Shah Rukh Khan's real-life events through the character of a Delhi-based young boy having a dream to make it in the industry. As per an insider, the series would be a multi-starrer, and it would not be a biopic on SRK, instead, the viewers could get traces of SRK's real-life events through the bits and pieces attached to the character of the Delhi-based young boy.
