The Bollywood spotlight is shifting to a new generation as reports confirm that Kiara Bose Roy, daughter of actors Rohit Roy and Manasi Joshi Roy, is set to make her silver screen debut. She will be starring opposite Subhan Nadiadwala, the son of ace producer Sajid Nadiadwala, in the upcoming romantic drama titled Aisi Deewangi.
The film, which officially went on floors in late March 2026, is being directed by Shashank Khaitan, known for his knack for launching fresh talent under the Dharma Productions banner. This project, however, marks a high-profile collaboration between Khaitan and Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.
A Legacy in the Making
Subhan Nadiadwala, 23, has been groomed for the industry since childhood. His debut is seen as a significant milestone for the Nadiadwala family, who have been pillars of Indian cinema for three generations. The film’s title, Aisi Deewangi, carries a sentimental weight; it is an homage to the late Divya Bharti, Sajid Nadiadwala’s first wife. The title is inspired by the iconic song from Bharti’s 1992 debut film, Deewana.
The Search for the Leading Lady
While Subhan’s debut had been the subject of industry chatter for months, the identity of his leading lady remained a closely guarded secret until now. Insiders reveal that Kiara Bose Roy won the role after a series of impressive auditions.
“Kiara is not just a striking face; she brings a natural talent that the director felt was perfect for the character,” a source close to the production shared. “Shashank Khaitan was looking for someone with a fresh energy and a strong screen presence, and Kiara fit the bill effortlessly.”
Kiara, an Ivy League graduate from Brown University, has largely stayed out of the limelight during her academic years in the US. Her father, Rohit Roy, has often spoken about her being a “sorted young adult,” and her entry into films marks a transition from academia to the family craft of acting.
Production Details
The film began its first schedule in Mumbai at an under-construction site near Andheri West. Industry experts suggest that Aisi Deewangi will be a modern-day romantic saga with the polished aesthetic typical of a Shashank Khaitan directorial.
With two star kids carrying the weight of their respective legacies, expectations are sky-high. Fans of the Roy and Nadiadwala families are eagerly waiting to see if this new pairing can recreate the magic of the 90s romances that their parents were once a part of. To know such
