Yash Raj Films (YRF), the name synonymous with launching and nurturing Bollywood stars, is back in a big way. Known for discovering talents like Ranveer Singh, Ayushmann Khurrana, and Anushka Sharma, YRF is set to introduce a fresh batch of faces in the coming years. Leading the pack is Junaid Khan, son of Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan. Junaid makes his debut with Maharaj, releasing on Netflix on June 14. Following this, Ahaan Panday, nephew of Chunky Panday, will be launched in a romantic drama by YRF. YRF has signed another promising newcomer – Aneet Padda.
Sources reveal that the 21-year-old actress is all set for a dream debut opposite Ahaan Panday in Mohit Suri’s upcoming untitled young love story. As per a report in Peeping Moon, Aneet isn’t entirely new to the entertainment industry. She has already impressed audiences with supporting roles in Kajol’s heartwarming Salaam Venky and Nitya Mehra’s Amazon Prime series Big Girls Don’t Cry. She’s also graced the screens in commercials for popular brands like Amazon, Nescafe, Cadbury, and Paytm.
Earlier, Bollywood Hungama reported that Aneet’s impressive audition reportedly landed her not just a debut film but a three-film contract with YRF! This is a significant move, highlighting YRF’s confidence in the young actress. Aneet will also be managed by YRF Talent, a talent management agency known for its recent strategic shift.
There is a strong buzz that Aneet Padda has been signed on by YRF after smashing her auditions. She is being given a huge film for her debut as the quintessential YRF heroine! YRF has always backed supremely talented actors, especially outsiders who have gone on to become big stars. The company feels Aneet is a talent to watch out for and is planning to give her a huge debut film.
The source further revealed YRF’s ambitious plan to launch four exciting new talents within a year. Aditya Chopra, the head honcho at YRF, is known for taking a chance on newcomers and providing them with grand launchpads. Aneet’s talent has impressed Aditya Chopra so much that she has secured a three-film deal. This is accompanied by exclusive management under YRF Talent, signifying a significant shift in the agency’s approach.
This is the first film produced by the company’s CEO Akshaye Widhani. Aditya Chopra, who is the creative force at YRF, is empowering Akshaye Widhani & his leadership team to build creative partnerships with the most brilliant minds in the Hindi film industry. The film will go into production this year with 2025 set for release.
