Ahaan Panday's Journey in Saiyaara: The Real Story
Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda have made a significant mark in the Bollywood film industry with their debut in Mohit Suri’s film, Saiyaara. The film has successfully brought audiences back to theatres to witness the fresh talent of newcomers. Ahaan and Aneet quickly became sensations, captivating viewers with their heartfelt performances. During the film's promotion, Ahaan was described by Mohit as a ‘full, out-there, Gaiety Galaxy boy’, highlighting his vibrant personality.
In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, Ahaan opened up about his past persona on social media. He admitted that the character he portrayed on Instagram was not his true self but rather a facade he adopted to gain attention in the film industry. He explained, “When I was active on Instagram, the persona I had was never who I really was; it was who I thought I needed to be to get attention from the film fraternity.” This revelation sheds light on the pressures that many aspiring actors face in the industry.
Ahaan's character, Krish Kapoor, has quickly become a national crush, showcasing his versatility as an actor. He mentioned that he never envisioned playing such a character, as he typically auditioned for roles that were softer and more relatable. “You don't want [Krish] next door,” he quipped, emphasizing the complexity of his role.
Aneet Padda, who plays Vaani, a shy poet in Saiyaara, also shared her experiences from the set. She noted that everyone referred to Ahaan as the real Vaani and herself as the real Krish, highlighting the contrast between their on-screen and off-screen personalities. Their chemistry and performances have left a lasting impression, making them relatable to audiences.
As both actors embark on their careers, there is immense anticipation for what lies ahead. Viewers are eager to see Ahaan and Aneet take on diverse roles that challenge their acting capabilities. Their journey represents the struggles and triumphs of many newcomers in the Indian film industry, striving to stay true to themselves while making a name in a competitive environment.
