Meet star kid whose first film flopped and now he's betting big on Sunny Deol's next
No one's a born actor and acting is such a skill that evolves with time! The Indian film industry has witnessed many actors refining their mettle over the years. While a few keep working, some adapt a different approach and wait for a strong project to be offered. And the latter is the case with a budding actor, who's a son of a popular Bollywood figure. Well, we are talking about Ahan Shetty. Ahan was born on December 28, 1995, to Suniel and Mana Shetty. He has an elder sister, Athiya, who has now quit showbiz and is living away from the spotlight. Going by his social media handle, the 29-year-old seems to be a huge sports enthusiast. From football to shooting and tennis, he has never shied away from channeling his inner sportsman. Not only this, but the rookie actor maintains a sculpted physique by hitting the gym. One can notice several snaps from his gym and workout sessions on his social media profile. Coming to his career, Ahan Shetty marked his debut with the romantic action drama film Tadap (2021). Directed by Milan Lutharia, the movie featured Tara Sutaria as the female lead. Touted to be a remake of a hit Telugu film, RX 100. Unfortunately, it couldn't do wonders at the box office, and Tadap flopped drastically. Since then, Ahan didn't sign any project, but now, he's betting big on one of the most anticipated movies, Border 2. Yes, you read that right! The Tadap actor will be seen sharing screens with Sunny Deol in the sequel of Border. Helmed by Anurag Singh, the upcoming installment also stars Varun Dhawan and Diljit Dosanjh. Border 2 is scheduled to release in cinemas next year during the Republic Day weekend. On the other hand, Ahan was set to star alongside Pooja Hegde in a movie titled Sanki, backed by Sajid Nadiadwala. However, according to the reports, the project has been put on the back burner. Well, as of now, the young actor has taken up 'mama' duty as Athiya welcomed a baby girl with her husband, KL Rahul.

Who is Ghattamaneni Jaya Krishna? Meet Mahesh Babu's nephew debuting with RX 100 director Ajay Bhupathi
Telugu cinema is set to welcome a new lead actor from the prestigious Ghattamaneni family. Following in the footsteps of legendary actor Krishna, his grandson Ghattamaneni Jaya Krishna is all set to make his debut with RX 100 director Ajay Bhupathi. Let's take a look at the upcoming actor. Ghattamaneni Jaya Krishna is the son of Mahesh Babu 's elder brother, the late actor Ramesh Babu. Ramesh had made his debut as a lead in Telugu cinema in 1987 after a brief stint as a child artist. Making his debut with the film Samrat, Ramesh Babu went on to appear in 15 films as a lead actor, including titles like Bazaar Rowdy, Mugguru Kodukulu, and more. However, after playing a supporting role in 1997's Encounter, he retired from acting. He later transitioned into production in 1999, beginning his behind-the-scenes journey as an executive producer on Amitabh Bachchan 's starrer Sooryavansham. Moving forward, Ramesh Babu went on to produce and present four films featuring his younger brother Mahesh Babu in the lead: Arjun, Athidhi, Dookudu, and Aagadu. Though he stepped away from the limelight for a while, the actor-producer sadly passed away at the age of 56 on January 8, 2022, due to liver disease. Now, years later, his son and Mahesh Babu's nephew, Ghattamaneni Jaya Krishna, is all set to make his debut in Telugu cinema under the direction of Ajay Bhupathi. According to a report by The Economic Times, Jaya Krishna has been undergoing intensive acting training in the USA. With multiple reports suggesting he reviewed various scripts, it appears he has chosen Ajay Bhupathi to helm his launch project. See Ghattamaneni Jaya Krishna's pictures: For those unaware, Ajay Bhupathi is a Telugu-language filmmaker who made his directorial debut with the romantic thriller RX 100, starring Kartikeya and Payal Rajput. Following its success, he went on to direct Maha Samudram in 2021 and most recently helmed Mangalavaaram in 2023. An erotic psychological thriller, Mangalavaaram features an ensemble cast including Payal Rajput, Nandita Swetha, Priyadarshi Pulikonda, Divya Pillai, and others.
