In a film industry brimming with debutants, Aaishvary Thackery has managed to do what few can — make an unforgettable impression right from his first film. With Nishaanchi, directed by Anurag Kashyap, he didn’t just mark a debut; he announced his arrival as a complete performer — actor, singer, and composer — all rolled into one. Here’s why Aaishvary is being hailed as the Star of the Year.
1. A Debut That Feels Like a Breakthrough
Aaishvary’s entry into cinema wasn’t tentative — it was commanding. Playing two distinct characters in Nishaanchi, he displayed remarkable range and control, making each persona stand apart with authenticity. It’s rare for a debutant to attempt dual roles, rarer still to pull them off with such finesse.
2. More Than an Actor — A True Performer
While most newcomers focus solely on acting, Aaishvary proved his versatility by contributing musically to the film. He sang the soulful “Neend Bhi Teri” and even composed the quirky, viral hit “Pigeon Kabootar.” His musical instinct adds another layer to his already impressive creative personality.
3. Grounded Beginnings, Filmmaker’s Insight
Before stepping into the spotlight, Aaishvary worked behind the camera as an assistant director on Bajirao Mastani (2015). That early hands-on experience shows in his performances — there’s a sense of rhythm, awareness, and storytelling maturity that only comes from understanding cinema inside out.
4. Industry Recognition and Rising Buzz
Even before his debut, Nikhil Dwivedi called him “someone to watch.” Post-Nishaanchi, the prediction proved true. With praise from critics and insiders alike, Aaishvary has already signed his next — the Hindi remake of the Telugu hit Baby, directed by Sai Rajesh.
5. The Star Who’s Here to Stay
In an era of fleeting fame, Aaishvary’s presence feels refreshingly enduring. His blend of talent, training, and humility signals a long, promising journey ahead. He’s not just another debutant — he’s a star in the making, and Nishaanchi is only the beginning.
