On the 88th birth anniversary of his father, late filmmaker Yash Chopra, on September 27, Bollywood bigwig Aditya Chopra is all set to announce a massive slate of projects backed by their production house, Yash Raj Films (YRF). The announcement will mark the 50-year completion celebration of the banner.


Early unconfirmed reports have stated that upcoming projects include the return of Shah Rukh Khan, roping in Ajay Devgn for a production, and signing Vicky Kaushal for another film.

And now if fresh reports are to be believed then a star-kid is also set to be launched by YRF!

The news comes in time when there’s a heated debate going on social media over the existence of nepotism and star kids in Bollywood, after Sushant Singh Rajput's tragic demise.

As per a report in Bollywood Hungama, Ahaan Panday, the nephew of Chunky Panday and cousin of actress Ananya Panday, is all set to foray into the world of cinema. How? The report states that Yash Raj Films is going to be the launchpad for this young lad. The announcement of the same is going to be reportedly unveiled on YRF's 50th-anniversary celebrations.


Well, Ahaan is already a social media sensation and he is quite thrilled to be a part of Bollywood as well.


A source revealed the portal, “The launch was long due. Ahaan is a very good looking and talented person who already has a huge fan following on social media. Aditya Chopra has finally found an apt project for him. This film will be a part of YRF’s 50th celebrations.” However, there has been no further information available on who’ll be directing Ahaan’s debut vehicle.

Ahaan Panday is celebrity fitness trainer Deanne Panday and her entrepreneur-husband Chikki’s son. He’s quite close to Shah Rukh Khan’s children, Aryan and Suhana. In fact, Aryan and Ayaan have often been confused for each other. Incidentally, two years back, in an interview, Chunky Panday in an interview had hinted that he might be launched by YRF. Chunky had said, "My nephew Ahaan is just like my son. He is very famous right now on Instagram and on Twitter. Wherever I go, young girls ask me about him. He is a very hard working boy and he will also have an announcement soon. He is not debuting with Dharma Productions, but somewhere else. It could be Yash Raj Films. I can’t really talk about it, but very good news will be announced soon.”
