All eyes are on breakout star Aneet Padda following Saiyaara's incredible box office success.
With her widely praised performance as Vaani Batra, Aneet, who is only 22 years old, has become the talk of Gen Z audiences throughout India.
Rumours circulated regarding her involvement in the streaming project Nyaya, which is being directed by Nitya Mehra and her husband Karan Kapadia, as interest in her next move continues to grow. Nyaya is a non-YRF film,
Industry insiders have clarified, though, that Nyaya is a previously finished project that was filmed prior to Aneet signing on for her theatrical debut, not her follow-up project after Saiyaara.
Her future with Yash Raj Films (YRF) is expected to stay firmly in the theatre industry, as the studio is eager to establish her as a significant presence in the film industry, according to trade sources.
“Aneet is a big screen heroine for YRF. Nyaya was shot before she signed Saiyaara and it has no bearing on her career trajectory as a theatrical heroine going forward. A girl who is delivering probably a 400 crore hit in theatres, is a true Gen Z star at the age of just 22, will be preserved for theatricals. There are huge plans to make her the face of a generation and that can be achieved only by consolidating her theatrical equity,” informed a trade source.
The studio's strategy is clear: to foster Aneet's rising stardom through high-impact, theatrical releases. Saiyaara is rapidly approaching blockbuster status and is expected to surpass ₹400 crore at the domestic box office. In an effort to establish the young actress as a long-term leading lady in mainstream Hindi cinema, YRF is said to have arranged a number of significant projects for her.
Fans can be confident that Aneet's main focus moving forward will be on the big screen, even though Nyaya is anticipated to be released on a major streaming platform later this year. Aneet Padda is undoubtedly being prepared to guide a new generation of Bollywood stars with her unique combination of talent, youthful appeal, and on-screen persona.
