Ahaan Panday, hailing from a prominent Bollywood family, recently unveiled his and his sister Alanna's real names, revealing a connection to Yash Raj Films. Ahaan's Hindu name is Yash, and Alanna's is Chandni, inspired by the iconic film. His debut in Mohit Suri's 'Saiyaara,' a record-breaking love story, fulfilled his and his grandmother's dream of joining YRF.

Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's debut film, "Saiyaara," is a musical romantic drama about Krish, a musician, and Vaani, a poet. Their creative partnership turns into love despite fate's challenges. Praised for its emotions and music, it became 2025’s second highest-grossing film after "Chhaava."

Ahaan Panday, celebrated for his role in 'Saiyaara', was missed at his family's Ganesh Chaturthi festivities. His mother, Deanne Panday, shared a touching Instagram post expressing her sentiments. Ahaan's absence is likely due to commitments following the massive success of 'Saiyaara', which has become a record-breaking romantic drama, grossing over Rs. 500 crore worldwide.
