Ayaan Agnihotri’s Career
Ayaan has been building his own identity in the entertainment industry under his stage name, Agni. He has released tracks such as ‘Universal Law’ and collaborated with Salman Khan on ‘You Are Mine’, composed by Vishal Mishra, where Ayaan contributed rap verses. Speaking to News18, he noted, “With mamu, what happens is that if I or any of my siblings and cousins go up to him and tell him that we want to do something, he tells us to go do it and then show him. Only if he likes it, he let us know if he wants to be a part of it. It’s never like, ‘Oh, let’s do it!’”
In addition to his music career, Ayaan has appeared in films such as Hello and Message Sent, both released in 2020, further establishing himself in Bollywood beyond his family legacy.
