Ahaan Panday has made a thunderous entry into Bollywood with his debut film Saiyaara, which is taking the box office by storm. The romantic musical, directed by Mohit Suri, has not only struck an emotional chord with audiences but is also rewriting records, having collected a staggering Rs 172.50 crore in India within its first week. Globally, the film has already soared past the Rs 200 crore milestone — a remarkable feat for a debut actor.
Amidst this unprecedented success, Ahaan Panday took to Instagram to share his first post since the release of the film. Sharing behind-the-scenes pictures from the sets of Saiyaara, he wrote, “One week of Saiyaara, thank you for the love.” The actor, who plays the role of Krish Kapoor — an ambitious young singer with big dreams — has quickly become a fan favorite, and his character is resonating deeply with audiences.
The comment section of his post is overflowing with love and appreciation. One fan wrote, “Love you Krish Kapoor forever and ever and ever,” while another added, “Krish Kapoor has my heart!” Many expressed how long they had been waiting for Ahaan’s debut, with one user commenting, “Manifested watching you there since 2020 and finally it got fulfilled in the most amazing manner!”
Another heartfelt message read, “We love you our star, couldn't be more proud of you, love seeing all the appreciation you're getting and your hard work and dedication paid off well, here's to more great movies and iconic roles.” The genuine affection and admiration pouring in for Ahaan shows the kind of impact Saiyaara has made — both as a film and as a launchpad for a promising new actor.
Saiyaara tells the story of Vaani Batra, an aspiring journalist, and Krish Kapoor, a passionate young musician chasing stardom. Their journey from ambition to love forms the heart of the narrative, enriched by soulful music and stunning visuals. The film also stars Aneet Padda in the lead role alongside Ahaan, with supporting performances by Varun Badola, Shaan R Grover, and Alam Khan.
Backed by Yash Raj Films and made on a budget of Rs 60 crore, Saiyaara is being praised not just for its storytelling but also for its musical richness and visual grandeur. With rave reviews, an impressive box office run, and a star in the making, Saiyaara is proving to be a cinematic triumph. Ahaan Panday’s heartfelt message of gratitude is the cherry on top, as he humbly acknowledges the love that’s propelling him to stardom.
