Veer Pahariya Turns 30 Amid Bollywood Celebrations

Friends and family rally to celebrate the actor's birthday and debut film success.

Veer Pahariya is celebrating his 30th birthday amid the overwhelming success of his Bollywood debut, Sky Force, which hit theaters on January 24, 2025, and has already grossed over Rs. 100 crore. The momentous day on February 1 was marked by heartfelt wishes from fans, family, and friends, showcasing the deep connections he has cultivated within the industry.

Social media was abuzz with birthday messages, with Bollywood star Ananya Panday leading the way. She shared an endearing video of the two singing the classic track, "Tere Jaisa Yaar Kahan" from Sholay, undoubtedly capturing the essence of their friendship. Ananya seemed to bring joy to the occasion with her light-hearted post, captioning it, "Happy Birthday Partner," highlighting their camaraderie.

Veer, who looked dapper in his classic black suit pants, responded to Ananya's message with gratitude, resharing the heartwarming video on his Instagram story and replying, "Thank u Partner." The duo's playful bond was once again evident as fans reveled in the delightful moment.

Adding to the merriment, rising actress Rasha Thadani, fresh from her performance in Azaad, expressed her congratulations on Instagram, along with Veer’s brother, Shikhar Pahariya, who shared a touching birthday message alongside the two of them dressed up for the occasion. Shikhar's message read, "Happy Birthday to my one and only," demonstrating the love within the Pahariya family.

Meanwhile, as Bollywood enjoyed celebrating Veer’s big day, Janhvi Kapoor, sister of Khushi Kapoor—who also posted about Veer’s birthday—joined the fun by sharing clips from Sky Force and sending her congratulations on his first film's remarkable milestone. She affectionately referred to him as "Veeru," amplifying their friendship.

Abhishek Kapur, the director of Sky Force, took the moment to reflect on their shared dreams, stating, "From Bhediya, where we spoke about our dreams (you to act and me to direct), to Skyforce, where our dreams came true. We’ve come a long way, brother. Love you, Tabbym, and wish you a very happy birthday!" This personal touch added depth to the narrative, as it illustrated the hard work and creative aspirations they have both pursued.

Born on February 1, 1995, Veer hails from the prominent Pahariya family—his grandfather, Sushilkumar Shinde, once served as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra. This birthday not only marks three decades of his life but also celebrates the start of his career as one of Bollywood’s new rising stars. With his charismatic screen presence, he has quickly captured the hearts of audiences and critics alike.

Speculation swirls around Veer's past relationship with actress Sara Ali Khan, as they both share the screen for the first time in Sky Force. Their once-close bond, dating back to their school days, adds another layer of intrigue to Veer’s rise to fame. While the history between them is notable, many fans were quick to catch the fact Sara did not wish him on his birthday, stirring conversations about their current relationship.

A nostalgic throwback surfaced online, showcasing Veer as a young boy dressed similarly to his father, Sanjay Pahariya, at what appeared to be a family wedding. This heartwarming image served as a reminder of his roots and the close family ties he enjoys, as well as how far he has come.

Veer is undoubtedly on the precipice of stardom following the success of Sky Force, which is both critically acclaimed and loved by the viewing audience. His blending of charm and skill makes him one of the most promising new faces of Bollywood, with fans eagerly anticipating his next moves and projects.

With industry support from friends like Ananya, who continues to flourish with her own career—set to star alongside Lakshay in Chand Mera Dil—the encouragement is everywhere. Both artists have made significant strides, intertwining their journeys and celebrating each other's successes.

Today, as Veer Pahariya celebrates his milestone birthday alongside the monumental achievement of crossing the Rs. 100 crore benchmark with Sky Force, he stands at the dawn of what promises to be a remarkable career. With support from colleagues and friends, the world waits eagerly to see what this talented actor will accomplish next.
