Ahan Shetty who debuted with Tadap recently opened up about the film, wanting to become an actor and his father Suniel Shetty being his support system.
Ahan
Shetty
who
debuted
with
Tadap
recently
opened
up
about
the
film,
wanting
to
become
an
actor
and
his
father
Suniel
Shetty
being
his
support
system.
Ahan
revealed
that
while
acting
wasn't
his
first
choice
he
fell
in
love
with
acting
after
joining
drama
school.
What
he
was
interested
in
first
was
joining
the
armed
forces.
He
told
Etimes,
"Actually,
when
I
was
in
school,
up
until
sixth
grade
when
I
started
theatre
in
school,
I
wanted
to
join
the
army.
I
was
obsessed
with
the
army,
so
that
was
my
dream,
to
join
the
Indian
armed
forces.
But
then
I
started
drama
in
school
and
fell
in
love
with
it
and
subconsciously."
He
added
that
his
dad
being
an
actor
also
contributed
to
his
love
for
the
industry.
"I
was
like,
'Maybe
this
is
something
I
can
get
into
professionally
later
on
in
life'.
And
then
I
started
training
towards
becoming
an
actor
instead," he
added.
Talking
about
joining
the
industry
as
an
well-established
actor's
son,
Ahan
said
he
didn't
let
the
noise
around
nepotism
get
to
him.
He
said,
"When
it
comes
to
nepotism,
I
accept
it.
I
am
a
product
of
nepotism,
my
father
is
an
actor,
I
wanted
to
become
an
actor
and
I
became
an
actor.
But
at
the
same
time,
it's
about
whether
you
deserve
to
be
here."
Sharing
an
opinion
similar
to
his
father,
he
added,
"You
have
to
prove
that
you
have
to
be
here
and
hopefully,
I
have
proved
that
with
my
film.
Seeing
the
love
and
appreciation
that
I
received,
I
feel
like
maybe
I
proved
that
I
belong
here.
But
I'm
not
scared
of
the
word
nepotism.
I
feel
like
it
exists
in
every
field.
I
accept
it."
The
Tadap
star
revealed
that
his
father
has
always
been
a
a
big
support
system
for
him.
"But
I
feel
like
both
of
us
have
our
own
journeys.
I
think
back
then,
actors
used
to
film
5-6
movies
at
a
time.
Now
for
me,
I
got
to
focus
on
one
film
and
I
gave
my
100%
to
that
one
film."
Talking
about
his
father's
career,
Ahan
also
revealed
he
once
walked
out
off
a
set
because
he
didn't
like
his
father's
role.
He
told
the
portal,
"I
think,
when
I
walked
out
of
'Main
Hoon
Na'
being
so
young,
I
was
very
young
then.
I
was
like,
'Why
did
he
do
this?'
I
looked
at
him
very
differently.
But
when
it
comes
to
a
film
as
a
whole
and
his
character,
it
was
fantastic
and
I
thought
his
performance
was
brilliant."
On
the
work
front,
Ahan
reporteldy
has
since
signed
a
multi-film
deal
with
Sajid
Nadiadwala's
production
house.
However,
the
number
of
films
and
the
release
timeline
is
yet
to
be
made
public.
