Starting a production house

Passion for cinema remains intact
Aahana Kumara also made it clear that she will never give up her passion for cinema. However, she will not wait for acting offers but will now focus more on creating good content. According to Aahana, with the changes in the industry, she too has to make her own way, and now she is trying to explore new opportunities through her production house.
