Ahaan Panday starts prep for Ali Abbas Zafar’s action film, to be trained for over 60 days- Reports

Ahaan Panday is ringing in his birthday with a burst of energy and excitement, swapping celebrations for action training. The actor, who has quickly become one of India’s most talked-about newcomers, is kickstarting preparations for his next big project, an action entertainer directed by Ali Abbas Zafar.

Rigorous training schedule planned

According to Pinkvilla, Ahaan will need to prepare in action for over 60 days to perfect the kind of raw action that Ali wants him to do on screen. It is a pure coincidence that the date when he starts action training is his birthday. So, it’s no days off for Ahaan as he will have a working birthday this year. Ahaan will have to train in various action disciplines to look like a brute force of nature when he unleashes his action avatar in Ali’s film. Ali is carefully working with Ahaan to unlock something that people can’t even imagine. Ali will be the guide in Ahaan’s prep journey, as the director wants to present his star in a jaw-dropping manner. The captain of the ship is known for presenting the biggest superstars in auras that people have loved, and he is excited to work with a young star like Ahaan now and do something insanely exciting. We have to wait for the film’s asset to know what he has in mind.

A fresh on-screen pairing with Sharvari

Reportedly, Sharvari will play the lead in an upcoming action-romance, bringing a new on-screen duo to audiences. Set to begin filming in early 2026, the film marks the fifth time Aditya Chopra and Zafar have joined forces after hits like ‘Mere Brother Ki Dulhan’, ‘Gunday’, ‘Sultan’ and ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’.

Saiyaara’s success

Ahaan marked his acting debut with the musical romance ‘Saiyaara’, helmed by Mohit Suri. After a blockbuster theatrical run that earned over Rs 300 crore across India, the film is now winning hearts on Netflix with impressive streaming numbers.
