Aditya Pancholi (born 4 January 1965) is an Indian actor and producer working in Hindi cinema.

Pancholi was born to Rajan Pancholi, the younger brother of Dalsukh Pancholi, the family being pioneers as directors-producers, having released the first Punjabi film and having owned Pancholi Arts, the largest film studio in pre-partition Lahore.

His sister is married to former actor Jainendra Pratap Singh, through whom his niece is actress Aditi Singh.

He was signed for a few television video films produced by Hiba, which was owned by Stardust magazine owner Nari Hira. Pancholi made his acting debut with Shahadat in 1985. In 1986, he did the television films Sone Ka Pinjra, Siyahi, Kalank Ka Tika, Afshar Ki Saali and Maryam Ki Beti. Later that year, he ventured into mainstream Bollywood with Sasti Dulhan Mahenga Dulha. During this time, he adopted the stage name Aditya Pancholi.

In 1987, Pancholi gave performances in two television movies: Abhishek and Khatarnaak Irade. In Abhishek, he portrayed a well-known businessman who used his father's wealth in enjoying leisure time and used a new costume to help depressed and troubled people. In Khatarnaak Irade, Pancholi played the role of a womanising lifeguard who got himself into trouble while falling in love with a married woman played by Anju Mahendru.

In 1995 he also starred in the TV series Mahashakti in DD Metro opposite Juhi Chawla. This series was to be released in 1989 as a Vaada raha milan ka, but the film was released as a TV series on DD Metro.

In 2014 he starred in the television film (My Father Godfather), which was to be released in theatres, but was released on the World Wide Web and television.

He appeared in Dharamyudh with Sunil Dutt, Suresh Oberoi and Shatrughan Sinha. Later that year, he collaborated with K.C. Bokadia in Kab Tak Chup Rahungi, opposite Amala. This was his first lead role in Bollywood and established him as a lead actor in the industry. His next release that year was Qatil, in which he starred opposite Sangeeta Bijlani. Pancholi portrayed a lawyer's son who resists the death penalty and imprisonment and proves himself guilty of the murder of a prostitute, but was trapped when a friend betrayed him by removing all of the evidence.
