Ahaan says his only privilege was seeing the industry up close

Ahaan Panday has emerged as one of the most talked-about newcomers of the year, following the release of Mohit Suri’s Saiyaara. Son of businessman Chikki Panday and former model Deanne Panday, and nephew of actor Chunky Panday, Ahaan has often been labelled a ‘star kid’—despite neither of his parents being Bollywood actors. His family’s close ties with the film industry, including his father’s long-standing friendship with Shah Rukh Khan and Ahaan's own bond with Aryan Khan, have only amplified that perception.
