Saiyaara has cemented its place as a box-office success, and with it, debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda have become household names.
But it’s not just their sizzling on-screen chemistry that has fans talking — reports suggest the duo may have found love off-screen as well.
According to Deccan Chronicle, a source close to producer Aditya Chopra revealed that Ahaan and Aneet grew close while filming and are now in a committed relationship.
“Theirs is one of the most beautiful love stories in the industry. It happened naturally during the shoot. She was innocent and vulnerable, and he took care of her. What began as friendship has blossomed into deep love,” the source claimed.
However, the same source noted that the young stars have been asked to keep their romance under wraps, with Aditya Chopra reportedly concerned that confirming their relationship could impact their popularity.
Both Ahaan and Aneet have signed individual three-film contracts with the producer, making discretion crucial at this stage of their careers.
Interestingly, Aneet herself hinted at the duo’s close bond in an earlier interview. She recalled a touching moment when Ahaan took her to Mount Mary Church before she landed Saiyaara.
“We lit a candle and sat in the car. I asked him what he wished for, and he just smiled. A week later, I got the call that I’d been cast. He then told me he had wished exactly that.”
Whether friendship or romance, Ahaan and Aneet’s off-screen connection seems just as captivating as their on-screen pairing — and fans are already rooting for this real-life love story.
