Mumbai/IBNS: Director Ali Abbas Zafar has roped in Aaishvary Thackeray to play the negative lead opposite Ahaan Panday in his upcoming untitled action romance for Yash Raj Films (YRF), promising an intense showdown between two of India’s most promising young actors.

Aaishvary, who won acclaim for his performance in Anurag Kashyap’s Nishaanchi, has been widely recognized as a talent to watch. His screen presence, nuanced acting, and versatility have made him a sought-after actor in the industry.

The film also features Sharvari alongside Ahaan and Aaishvary, making it a powerhouse cast of young talent.

Trade sources highlight that audiences are eager to see fresh actors deliver stellar performances, citing Ahaan Panday’s success in Saiyaara as evidence of the box office appeal of new talent.

A source said, "Ali Abbas Zafar is known for directing blockbuster entertainers like Sultan and Tiger Zinda Hai. Expect the showdown between Ahaan and Aaishvary to be a cinematic spectacle.

"With romance at the core and high-octane action, the film promises to keep audiences on the edge of their seats."

The project is seen as a significant opportunity for these young actors to showcase their skills on a grand scale, marking a new chapter in Indian cinema’s focus on fresh talent and high-profile storytelling.
