Who Is Ahaan Panday? All You Need To Know About 27-Year-Old Actor Making His Debut With Saiyaara
The trailer of Mohit Suri's upcoming romantic film, Saiyaara, was unveiled on Tuesday, and it marks the debut of actor Ahaan Panday, alongside actress Aneet Padda. As soon as the trailer was released, Ahaan grabbed eyeballs with his impressive acting chops and screen presence.
Ahaan will be seen playing a famous singer in Saiyaara, much like Aditya Roy Kapur in Aashiqui 2. In fact, director Mohit Suri has revealed that Saiyaara was initially planned as Aashiqui 3. The actor's intense scenes from the trailer are now doing the rounds on the internet.
Who is Ahaan Panday?
For those unawares, Ahaan is the son of Chikki Panday and Deanne Panday, and the nephew of actor Chunky Panday. He is also the cousin of actress Ananya Panday, and is friends with all the famous starkids.
Ahaan first came into the limelight back in 2023 when he was seen dancing to Shah Rukh Khan's iconic song, I Am The Best, at the wedding of his sister, Alanna Panday in Mumbai. Netizens were impressed by his moves, and SRK himself was seen watching the young lad perform.
Around the same time, his video recreating SRK's 'Ek Tarfa' dialogue from Ae Dil Hai Mushkil also surfaced online, but he was trolled for the same as netizens found it cringeworthy.
Ahaan is friends with the likes of Aryan Khan, Suhana Khan, Shanaya Kapoor, Orry, and others.
About Saiyaara
Speaking of Saiyaara, the Mohit Suri directorial is all set to hit the silver screens on July 18, 2025. Like the films of the Aashiqui franchise, Saiyaara too is laced with music which will play an essential role in the story.
Opening up on working with Ahaan and Aneet in Saiyaara, Suri said, "I was blown away that here are two absolutely fresh new actors who have it in them to act, to surrender to a vision! It’s a rarity today honestly and it’s so refreshing to make a love story with newcomers! I’m glad I found these two because I’m making this story as it was meant to be made."
