After making one of the most explosive debuts in recent times, Ahaan Panday seems to be attracting all the right attention — and his latest sighting has only added fuel to the fire.
The young actor was recently spotted walking into Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s office, and naturally, the rumour mill kicked into high gear.
It’s no surprise, really. Ahaan’s first film Saiyaara, directed by Mohit Suri and co-starring fellow newcomer Aneet Padda, has turned out to be a runaway success. In less than three weeks, it’s crossed the Rs 500 crore mark at the global box office, according to Yash Raj Films — making it not just a commercial hit, but the highest-grossing love story in Indian cinema history.
That’s a huge achievement by any standard, but even more so for two debutantes. The film’s emotional storytelling and fresh chemistry clearly struck a chord, and just like that, Ahaan and Aneet became household names.
Now, with that kind of momentum, Ahaan showing up at Bhansali’s office has got fans wondering: could a collaboration be on the cards? Known for his grand, emotionally rich films and his eye for talent, Sanjay Leela Bhansali doesn’t meet just anyone. Every actor he works with ends up being part of something unforgettable — and for someone like Ahaan, who’s just stepped into the limelight, this could be the next big leap.
According to insiders, there could be a mentoring relationship through the director's production company, a smaller role, or even a lead role in an upcoming Bhansali movie. Since neither Ahaan nor Bhansali have released an official statement, nothing has been verified as of yet.
One thing is certain, though: the industry is closely observing Ahaan Panday's next move following Saiyaara's historic run. And if Sanjay Leela Bhansali is involved in that next step, it might mark the beginning of yet another significant phase in his career.
