Ahaan Panday is a fan of BLACKPINK Lisa

Rising Bollywood actor Ahaan Panday made a candid revelation that caught many off guard: his favourite K-pop artist is none other than Lisa from BLACKPINK.

This is a delightful moment that is now causing excitement among Indian K-pop fans. The shocking revelation was made during an entertaining episode on his sister Alanna Panday's YouTube channel, in which the two of them played a light-hearted guessing game about one another's tastes with other viewers.

During the segment, Alanna was asked to guess Ahaan’s top K-pop pick. With an amused expression, she tentatively jotted down “PINKBLACK” on a whiteboard, inadvertently reversing the name of the globally renowned girl group.

Ahaan couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the mix-up but admitted that Alanna wasn’t completely wrong. After a few moments of playful back-and-forth, Ahaan confirmed that Lisa — BLACKPINK’s rapper and dancer — was indeed his favourite.

The revelation quickly made waves across social media, especially within desi K-pop circles. Indian fans were both surprised and delighted by Ahaan’s admiration for Lisa, with many praising his taste and joining the banter online.

One fan wrote, "Ahaan Pandey being a lisa Stan was not on my 2025 bingo card but alr I'll take my crumbs." Another chimed in with, "did yall know Ahaan Panday (ananya panday's cousin) biases lisa (blackpink) dhfwjefjqkef."

Ahaan, who recently made his acting debut in Saiyaara — a romantic drama helmed by Mohit Suri under Yash Raj Films — stars opposite newcomer Aneet Padda. The film draws gentle inspiration from the 2004 Korean cult classic A Moment to Remember, weaving a poignant love story between Krish Kapoor, a brooding musician, and Vaani Batra, a poet with a quiet strength.

Ahaan Panday is quickly becoming a relatable star among Gen Z fans thanks to his heartfelt debut and his mutual admiration for a K-pop icon, fusing Bollywood charm with popular culture from around the world.
