Saiyaara Breakouts Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda Make First Joint Interview and Magazine Cover Debut

The post-release turn to the spotlight follows a YRF-backed, low-profile rollout for Mohit Suri’s romance that cleared ₹500 crore worldwide.

Overview

  • The newcomers appeared together for the first time in a The Hollywood Reporter India interview and on The Hollywood Reporter magazine cover.
  • Their media debut comes after YRF and director Mohit Suri kept the actors out of pre-release promotions to let the film’s music and story drive discovery.
  • Ahaan reflected on delayed launches, feeling “wronged,” working as an assistant, and losing his grandmother, saying the success felt like his work finally spoke first.
  • Aneet described secretly filming auditions at home because of financial constraints and recalled visiting Mumbai’s Mount Mary Church with Ahaan before she was cast.
  • Recent reports place the global gross around ₹563 crore, with the film setting records for a debut-led love story, and off-screen dating speculation about the leads remains unconfirmed.
