Mumbai: ‘Saiyaara’ star, Ahaan Panday, left audience and critics floored with his impressive acting skills in his debut Bollywood film.
Ahaan improved his natural acting skills by attending multiple workshops, where YouTuber Nikhil Pandey too was a student.
Recalling his meeting with Ahaan, Nikhil, in a resurfaced clip, shared that the ‘Saiyaara’ actor was always late to class and was a chain smoker. He also revealed that Ahaan once made out with a guy for a gay love scene and left everyone impressed with his acting.
“Ahaan Panday… he was there. He was always late, a chain smoker. He was a 21-year-old kid who would just… I think he was trying to be an actor… Straight up, though, he was a great actor. It was weird because I wanted to hate this guy. He was always late, he’s the child of a movie star… kind of a douchebag, but great on camera,” Nikhil said.
He added, “He was given a gay love scene where one lover has to give medication to his other half because he has AIDS. It was really traumatic. I’m like, I’m so glad I didn’t get that scene. He just took it. He just killed it. He straight up made out with the guy. He didn’t tell the guy in advance… The guy just rolled with it because he was also a committed actor.”
