Though Rohan Chand is of American nationality, the youngster is Asian

Rohan Chand was born on the 25th of January 2004. The juvenile actor was born in the United States of America, precisely in New York City, New York. Though he is an American national, Rohan’s ethnicity is listed as Asia; he is of Indian descent.

The name of his father is Rob Chand who works and earns a living as an IT professional. Rohan’s mother is also into IT but her name has never been mentioned. The teen actor is not his parent’s only child as he spent his growing up years with a sister, albeit her identity is not known. Rohan is said to be very close to his only sibling.

In his late teens, Chand appears to be diligent with education. The youngster goes to one of the schools in Brooklyn and according to Rob, they got him a tutor that follows him to the movie set in a bid to improve his performance in his finals. He recently graduated.

Rohan Chand was just six years when he came in contact with the movie world. The blossoming movie star was out playing basketball with other kids when he was singled out by a casting director who is a mother to one of his playmates. Adam Sandler’s movie Jack and Jill was scouting for talents at the time and Rohan was advised by his friend’s mom to audition. He eventually won the role of Gary, Sandler’s adopted son, and joined the cast of the film that hit the movie stand in 2011.

He next played a cameo in a single episode of Crossfire as Issa Nazir – a son of the central terrorist character who became friends with a US soldier. 2013 was when the juvenile actor appeared on the set of Lone Survivor, speaking in Urdu and Hindu as the child of an Afghan man who provides an American Navy SEAL with assistance.

Before the end of 2013, Rohan Chand started scoring major roles. His role as Chaitanya Chopra in the comedy movie, Bad Words is an apt example. On set, Chand was a contestant in a spelling bee who became friends with the lead character (depicted by Jason Bateman). Though he auditioned for the role as an eight-year-old, Rohan Chand already hit ten before the release of the movie and his onscreen performance attracted praise from critics. A writer working for Variety Magazine predicted that the up-and-coming actor is likely to get “many more big-screen opportunities thanks to his endearingly wide-eyed presentation”.

Next came the Lasse Hallström-directed 2014 movie, The Hundred-Foot Journey with Helen Mirren in the starring role. Chand depicted the character of the younger version of Manish Dayal’s character (Manish was Helen’s co-star)

An announcement came in 2014 that Rohan Chand was set to play the lead in Bollywood Superstar Monkey – DreamWorks Animation’s Bollywood-style musical where he would be sharing the screen with Lea Michele. He then played the title character in Andy Serkis’ Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle – an adventure-drama flick released on the 19th of October, 2018. This particular production turned the youngster into a global sensation.

Other productions where he played notable roles include The Jungle Book, Lone Survivor, and The Hundred-Foot Journey. The blossoming movie superstar was also part of the cast of Homeland – The Showtime series where he made an appearance as a co-star in its debut season. Welcome to the Jungle is an American experience parody film where Chand essayed the character of a young guide at the bazaar.
