Meet actor who played young Amitabh Bachchan, moved to the US, and built a Rs 200 crore business empire, his name is...

In the golden age of Hindi cinema, a few young faces became instantly recognisable, the child actors who played Amitabh Bachchan's younger self in some of the biggest blockbusters. From Deewar to Coolie, these kids were sometimes more in demand than grown-up leads. But stardom in childhood didn't mean a lifetime in front of the camera. As the years rolled by, their journeys took unexpected turns, from tech to hospitality to international business. Who is Alankar Joshi Known to audiences as Master Alankar, Alankar Joshi starred in over 100 Hindi films, delivering memorable performances in Seeta Aur Geeta, Majboor, and Deewar. His sister, actor Pallavi Joshi, once revealed that it was Amitabh Bachchan who suggested casting him in Deewar. But adulthood brought a shift. Alankar left acting, dabbled briefly in direction and production in Marathi cinema, and eventually moved to the U.S. A career in software programming followed, then entrepreneurship. Three decades on, he runs a thriving business reportedly worth around Rs 200 crore. His daughters act in Hollywood, while his son is pursuing music. Ravi Valecha: 'Chhota Amitabh' to hotelier Master Ravi Valecha, nicknamed 'Chhota Amitabh', lit up the screen as young Bachchan in Amar Akbar Anthony, Coolie, and Mr. Natwarlal. Starting at age four, he shared the frame with icons like Dilip Kumar and Rishi Kapoor. As an adult, he stepped away from films and studied Hotel Management, later completing an MBA in Hospitality and International Business. Today, he is a respected figure in the hospitality sector and trains students in soft skills and industry readiness. Master Mayur, real name Mayur Raj Verma, was the highest-paid child actor of his era, appearing in Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Laawaris, and later as Abhimanyu in BR Chopra's Mahabharata. His break came when his journalist mother introduced his photo to director Prakash Mehra, who needed a child resembling Amitabh Bachchan. After hits like Sharabi and Love in Goa, he left the limelight, moved to Wales, and married celebrity chef Noori. Together, they built a successful restaurant empire in Indiana and expanded into multiple ventures, with wealth reportedly in the billions.

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 18: Mohit Suri's film surpasses ₹300 crore mark, earns THIS amount on Monday

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 18: After ruling the box office for 17 days, Mohit Suri's latest romantic film, starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, on Monday slowed down a bit. Saiyaara's earnings declined on its eighteenth day. According to trade industry tracker Sacnilk, Saiyaara earned an estimated ₹ 1.39 crore India net on Monday, August 4, at the box office, marking a significant decline since Friday. Saiyaara had an overall 13.95% Hindi Occupancy on Monday. Saiyaara Day 18 Hindi (2D) occupancy in Theaters Night Shows: yet to be ascertained. The Ahaan Pandey-starrer film opened to ₹ 21.5 crore. On Friday, Day 15, the film earned ₹ 4.5 crore. The total collection of Saiyaara now stands at ₹ 301.14 crore (India Net), according to Sacnilk data. Saiyaara collected over ₹ 472 crore worldwide in 17 days, including ₹ 299.75 crore India net and ₹ 112 crore from overseas. Speaking on the Saiyaara box office collection, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh wrote on X, 'continues its dream run… The film has crossed the ₹ 💯 cr mark in *Week 2* [Friday to Wednesday], reflecting its strong hold at the box-office. It is now eyeing a ₹ 285 cr [+/-] total by the end of Week 2.' In another post on X, Adarsh noted, '#Saiyaara continues its strong run on Tuesday, hitting double digits yet again… The discounted ticket pricing initiative has certainly helped drive footfalls.' However, the film's collection has been impacted by Ashwin Kumar's mythological animated film, Mahavatar Narsimha that released on July 25, 2025. Saiyaara is a romantic musical drama film directed by Mohit Suri. Produced by Yash Raj Films, it stars debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda along with Geeta Agarwal, Rajesh Kumar, and Varun Badola. The film is loosely inspired by the 2004 Korean movie A Moment To Remember.
