In an exclusive interaction with mid-day, Ahan, while talking about the film, stated, "I had uploaded a few dance and action videos on Instagram. Sajid sir [Nadiadwala, producer] saw them and reached out to one of my dad’s friends. He, in turn, called my dad to say that Sajid sir wants to meet me. When I met him, he wanted to know if I could act. I sent him a few clips that had me performing scenes, which he liked. That [led to my] signing the contract."
Tadap, a remake of Telugu film RX 100 (2018), is an intense romantic drama of two star-crossed lovers, played by Ahan and Tara Sutaria. As someone who swears by tragic love stories, the actor was thrilled to be part of one. “The Vow [2012] is one of my favourite movies. This is the type of film I want to do. There isn’t a sense of fear because I like to take on challenges. This film was difficult because given the two different personalities my character has, it was almost like playing a double role.”
