Meanwhile, Aaman made his Bollywood debut alongside Raveena Tandon's daughter Rashe Thadani in "Azaad." Abhishekh Kapoor's action-adventure drama also featured Ajay Devgn and Diana Penty in prominent roles. Ajay Devgn's nephew had undergone rigorous training to portray a village boy. As part of his preparation, Aaman developed a strong bond with the horse, as his character required him to master horse riding.
Speaking about the training process, Aaman had earlier shared, "I'm extremely fond of horses, and when I heard the script of the movie, I knew in my heart I had to do it. I decided to devote my time understanding Azaad, his moods and his body language to ensure that it looks absolutely real onscreen. I ensured before our shoot started I spent time with Azaad, had my meals with him, and even slept in his stable and spent over 10 days with him throughout my shoot schedule. I have even cleaned his stool myself to ensure that he is comfortable in my presence and build the foundation of trust. It was an enriching experience for me, and I learned so much about horses. Apart from horse riding, spending time with Azaad has actually made me do my scenes effortlessly."
