Ahaan Panday to shoot energetic dance number in Manchester for Ali Abbas Zafar film? Here’s what we know! Ahaan Panday is reportedly set to showcase his dancing skills for the first time on the big screen in his upcoming untitled film with director Ali Abbas Zafar. After creating a strong fan following with Saiyaara, the young actor is now expected to step into a more commercial and larger-than-life space with an energetic dance number planned as part of the action entertainer. While many expected Mohit Suri’s Saiyaara to introduce Ahaan in a more conventional Bollywood hero format, complete with dance and music, the filmmaker instead presented him in an intense and emotionally layered avatar.

A four-day shoot is being planned to shoot Ahaan singing and dancing just like the stars we have all seen doing for all these years,” a source revealed.

SCOOP: After Saiyaara, Mohit Suri and Ahaan Panday's next is a twisted love story for Aditya Chopra In 2025, Saiyaara redefined the box office, as the film marked the launch of two superstars - Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. The film went on to become the biggest launch pad of the modern era, and ever since, there has been curiosity to learn more about Ahaan Panday. The young superstar signed his second feature film with YRF and Ali Abbas Zafar, and the film is presently on the floor. And now we have learnt that Ahaan's next after the Ali Abbas Zafar directorial will be a twisted love story with Saiyaara director Mohit Suri. "Mohit Suri was initially looking to make an older guy and younger girl love story. But when the logistics didn't work out, he decided to redesign the project for his leading hero Ahaan Panday. The script organically flew to perfection, and gave Mohit the wings to come up with a rather twisted love story," a trade source shared with Bollywood Hungama on anonymity. The source promises that this isn't a project designed to capitalise on the popularity of Saiyaara. "If YRF wanted to cash in on Saiyaara, they would have made Saiyaara 2. This is a rather twisted love story of jilted lovers, and in a space very different from Saiyaara. Ahaan is excited to reunite with his mentor - Mohit Suri, under the production of Aditya Chopra.

Ahaan Panday reveals he underwent painful shoulder surgery after Saiyaara: “I don’t know how nobody realised” Actor Ahaan Panday has revealed that he underwent a major shoulder surgery following the release of Saiyaara, a procedure he describes as one of the most painful with the longest recovery period. In an interview with Esquire India, the actor shared that the decision to go under the knife stemmed from an old injury. A few years ago, Panday was involved in a snowmobile accident that resulted in a shoulder subluxation. The lingering impact of the injury began affecting his fitness goals, particularly as he prepared for an action film. “I actually got a whole surgery done after the release of Saiyaara last year,” Panday said. “And it’s one of the most painful surgeries you can do, with the longest recovery time. ”According to him, his doctor had cautioned that post-surgery, his body would “go back to zero”, making it “nearly impossible” to achieve the desired physique for his next project. The warning did not deter him. Instead, Panday now says he feels satisfied being able to speak about the process and “prove everyone wrong. ”He reflected on how gym transformations in the film industry often serve as motivation, but pointed out that his journey was different. “I used to feel motivated by actors who had dramatic gym transformations,” he said, adding that those usually involved moving from an unhealthy body type to a healthier one. “This was different; I went from... #Ahaan_Panday #Actor_Ahaan #Panday_reveals #Ahaan #Panday #Esquire_India #underwent_painful #major_shoulder #shoulder_surgery #underwent
