Azaad will hit theatres on January 17, 2025, and many trade experts term it as the first promising film of the year 2025. The period drama is directed by Abhishek Kapoor, who has previously directed films like Kedarnath, Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui, Kai Po Che!, and Rock On!!. The film is going to introduce debutants, Aaman Devgan and Rasha Thadani. Rasha is the daughter of iconic actress, Raveena Tandon and Anil Thadani, while Aaman is the son of Ajay Devgn's sister, Neelam Devgan.
The makers of the film, Azaad released its official trailer on January 6, 2025, and it received an impressive response from the audience. Although the film revolves around India's fight for independence from the Britishers, it seems like Azaad's (black horse) arc in the movie will overshadow it. Apart from Ajay Devgn, Aaman Devgan, and Rasha Thadani, the film also features a series of actors, including Diana Penty, Piyush Mishra, Jiya Amin, Mohit Malik, and many more.
Amidst all the buzz around Azaad, people are also keen to know more about the young and dynamic Aaman Devgan, who is playing the protagonist of the film. For the uninitiated, Aaman was born on February 18, 2000. Aaman Devgan also has a brother named Danish Devgan.
Everyone is aware of the fact that Aaman and Danish's mother, Neelam is Ajay Devgan's sister, not much is known about her husband. There are several pictures on the internet from Neelam's reception party, but there's no mention of her husband's identity in the public domain.
Aaman Devgan's mother, Neelam Devgan, is quite active on Instagram, but she has never shared any pictures with her husband. What's even more interesting is that she and her sons, Aaman and Danish, use the surname 'Devgan'. According to some reports, Neelam's husband's surname is 'Gandhi', and she used it for some time, but in recent years, she dropped it.

However, these are just speculations with no clear evidence, which is why it's not possible to comment anything on her marital status. Talking about Neelam's background, she is an entrepreneur by profession.
Talking about the educational qualifications of Ajay Devgn's nephew, Aaman Devgan completed his schooling at Jamanbai Narsee School in Mumbai. It is not known whether he pursued any professional degree after that or not because there's no concrete information about it in the public domain. At the age of 24, Aaman will debut in Bollywood, and it will be interesting to see him carrying his family's legacy to a notch higher.
Aaman Devgan will soon introduce himself as an actor in the film industry, but not everyone is aware of his brother, Danish Devgan, who is already a renowned name in the film industry. For the uninitiated, Danish made his directorial debut with the song, Hanju (2023), sung by Javed Ali. He also worked as a creative producer for the movie, Shaitaan. Not only this, Danish has also worked as an assistant director on a series of projects like Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, Helicopter Eela, and The Big Bull.
During the promotions of Azaad, Aaman Devgan and Ajay Devgn opened up about their respective experiences while working with each other for the first time. While Aaman admitted that he was quite 'nervous' while working with his mamu on the sets of Azaad, Ajay surprisingly revealed that he fired his nephew a couple of times during the shooting. Opening up more about it, Ajay Devgn shared that he kept pushing Aaman in order to make him reach his full potential. Recalling the same, he said:
"He keeps getting fired from me all the time. Whatever he tells us is not enough for me. He works very hard, but I keep pushing him."
Even before his debut in Bollywood, Aaman Devgan has a massive fanbase of 48.5K followers on Instagram. Time and again, we have seen him dropping pictures with his family. From sharing pictures with his mother, Neelam Devgan, and brother, Danish Devgan, Aaman's IG also has a series of pictures of him with Ajay Devgn and Kajol. One look at their photos, and it's pretty easy to understand that they're a close-knit family that never skips a chance to embrace each other's presence in their lives.
