You would have been living under a rock if you were not aware of Saiyaara’s craze and the overnight fame of debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, who rose to stardom after the release of Mohit Suri’s film.
Ahaan Panday, the son of Chikki Panday and Deanne Panday, shot to instant fame. While the world saw the brighter side of his success, there was a darker side too. Months after Ahaan gripped social media attention with his performance, his mother opened up about the immense love her son received and expressed gratitude for it, but also talked about some shocking experiences that they had witnessed.
Ahaan Panday's mother reveals when he recived a letter written in blood: ‘We wrote back…’
Ahaan celebrated his 28th birthday on 23 Dec and received a lot of love from his fresh base of fans. Speaking about the affection Ahaan has received, his mother shared:
“His oldest fan is in his eighties, and his youngest fan is two and a half—her parents sent us a video of her dancing to Saiyaara in Abu Dhabi. Every letter is emotional. Ahaan calls them [fans] his army. Some letters tell him how he’s changed their lives. Many are sweet and innocent—young girls writing about wanting to marry him or be his girlfriend. I find it very endearing. When I see women swoon over him, I get emotional. And I feel proud. It’s a very sweet feeling—your son being loved so much.”

Saiyaara craze and dominance
Ahaan has been the talk of the tinsel town after the release of Saiyaara. Before the film’s release, it was seen as just another romantic comedy. However, it turned out to be a surprise hit, winning hearts, especially among the younger audience. The movie went on to become one of the highest-grossing films of 2025, earning Rs 570.33 crores, according to Sacnilk.
