Aditya Pancholi’s Son, Sooraj to Assist Sanjay Bhansali in Guzaarish

Star sons have constantly made a beeline for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s unit to learn the ropes of cinema. During Devdas, Anupam and Kirron Kher’s son, Sikandar assisted Bhansali. During Black, it was Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam who assisted the filmmaker. And during Saawariya, Shatrughan Sinha’s son Kush was on board.

Same is the case with Bhansali’s forthcoming film, Guzaarish, for which the filmmaker will start shooting in Goa in August. There is already an interesting lineup of star kids, who will be assisting the visionary filmmaker. One of the ADs of the film is Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab’s 18-year-old son, Sooraj, who is readying himself for stardom. But not before he learns the ropes of filmmaking from Bhansali.

Papa Aditya said, “What better school to learn from other than Sanjay Leela Bhansali Sooraj will also have a chance observe actors like Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who star in the film. I wish I had this kind of an opportunity when I had started out in the film industry.”

Interestingly, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Aditya Pancholi are neighbours. They stay in the same building and are constantly in and out of each other’s homes. Zarina Wahab and Sanjay’s mother are the best of friends.

“Sooraj has inherited my looks and his mother’s nature. He still has some way to go before we launch him as an actor.But before that we want him to learn about cinema,” said the proud father.
