Vaastu Shastra - Ahsaas Channa made her film debut in the 2004 horror thriller Vaastu Shastra, in which she portrayed Rohan, the young son of Sushmita Sen’s character—despite being a girl herself. Her convincing performance impressed the filmmakers, who cast her in the male role after cutting her hair. That debut led to her being typecast in boyish roles in other films like Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (as Arjun, Shah Rukh Khan's son) and My Friend Ganesha . It wasn't until the 2008 horror film Phoonk that she finally appeared as a girl on screen. Looking back, Ahsaas has revealed how the industry insisted she maintain a boyish appearance going so far as to forbid her from growing her hair afterward which reinforced her on-screen image and shaped her early career path .
