Saiyaara pair Ahaan Panday, Aneet Padda are a real life couple, alleges report
If true, EVERYBODY saw this coming
Saiyaara is one of those films that will go down in history — and this is no exaggeration. At a time when even a list A star’s theatrical release always makes for an unsure box office weekend, how director Mohit Suri managed to push two absolutely fresh faces to literal overnight stardom, not to mention the frenzied theatre response, is mind boggling.
The how here is irrelevant but it’s safe to say, two new stars have been born.
And Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda have struck a fairly good balance of being swept up by the audience’s love whilst maintaining some palpable mystery. Coming to the latter, the chemistry is off the charts and the rumours of a secret relationship, a regularly recurring headline. And now if reports are to be believed, this isn’t just empty speculation.
A Deccan Chronicle report quotes a source close to Saiyaara producer Aditya Chopra, as confirming that Ahaan and Aneet are in fact, secretly dating in real life, and are purposefully keeping the relationship under wraps: “Theirs is one of the most beautiful love stories in the entertainment industry. It happened organically while they were shooting together for Saiyaara. She was innocent and vulnerable. He looked after her during the shooting. They drew close as they worked. Eventually, friendship turned into a deep love. Aneet and Ahaan are in a committed relationship”, reads the report.
Now the masses clearly love Ahaan and Aneet, both as separate rising stars and as a potential couple. So what’s the hang up? Well, a Times of India report suggests that Aditya Chopra feels their status as committed individuals may have some negative bearings on their fresh found stardom.
Speaking of stardom, both Ahaan and Aneet now have individual three-film contracts with the producer.
