The actor whose pictures we are showing you has recently made his debut. This star's film is currently a sensation across the country.
Every Bollywood actor dreams of becoming famous overnight with their first film or TV show. Ahaan Panday has finally realised his dream with 'Saiyaara' as the film has opened to a great opening in theatres. On Tuesday (July 22), Ahaan's mother, Deanne Panday, posted Ahaan's childhood photos along with an emotional message.
Who is Ahaan Panday?
Deanne Panday began her message on Instagram by describing Ahaan as a kid who always had big dreams. She wrote, 'When you were little, you always looked up at the stars. I never knew why. Played cricket, loved taking bubble baths in your big bucket, and kissing me, loved Namdev Panditji. Worked hard to put wood and ghee in the puja fire. Loved feeding prasad to your grandma. You were born prematurely, 40 days early and were so tiny for so long but turned into an adorable baby so quickly.'

What did Deanne Panday say about Ahaan?
Deanne Pandey then spoke about Ahaan Pandey's love for his grandparents. She said, 'You loved being in the lap of your great-grandfather who has completed 100 years. You loved your grandparents very much and always gave your all to your friends. You still do. My dear son, your grandparents and great-grandparents are blessing you from above. Your simplicity and humility have been with you from such a young age and so is your respect for elders. No matter what the world does, always stay the same. Good or bad, ups and downs, stay grounded and kind. God bless you, my son. We are so lucky to have you. Keep shining and always share your light with everyone.'
Directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Akshay Vidhani, Saiyaara has surpassed all expectations with its opening weekend collections and has given its lead actors a great start to their Bollywood journey.
How did Ahaan Panday get Saiyaara?
It is being said that Ahaan Pandey's audition for Saiyaara was rejected. But when Mohit Suri suddenly saw Ahaan dancing merrily in a bar one day, he understood that Ahaan Pandey could be the Krish Kapoor of his film.

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 15: Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda's blockbuster braves competition, nears Rs 450 crore worldwide

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 15: No one expected two newcomers to make such a big impact on the box office, but that's exactly what Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda have done with Saiyaara. The film has been on a historic two-week run, raking in unprecedented numbers while overtaking massively successful blockbuster on the all-time leaderboard. However, what goes up must come down, and it seems that the Saiyaara Express is finally running out of steam. According to early estimates by industry tracker Sacnilk, the film earned Rs 4.25 crore on day 15 of its theatrical run, taking its India net collection to Rs 284.75 crore. The worldwide collection of the film has crossed the Rs 440 crore mark, and even though it just recorded its lowest single-day earnings yet, the film was a success the day it came out. During the past 15 days, the Mohit Suri directorial has overtaken the likes of Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Kabir Singh (Rs 278 cr), the Salman Khan-starrer Tiger 3 (Rs 276 cr), the Aamir Khan-Katrina Kaif-starrer Dhoom 3 (Rs 271 cr), and the Ranbir Kapoor-Alia Bhatt-starrer Brahmastra Part One (Rs 241 cr), just to name a few. Now the film is hot on the heels of the Prabhas-Deepika Padukone-starrer Kalki AD 2898 AD (Rs 293 cr) and Salman Khan's Sultan (Rs 300 cr). ALSO READ: Triptii Dimri and Siddhant Chaturvedi's Dhadak 2 seethes with the rage of filmmaker Shazia Iqbal The occupancy rates of Saiyaara averaged out at 19.42%, with the morning and afternoon shows achieving 11.89% and 19.15%. The evening and night shows did slightly better with 20.24% and 26.40%. While the numbers are much lower than what Saiyaara had been averaging previously, it will pass the Rs 300 crore mark this weekend. The collection is bound to go down as the days pass, but the film's performance has been more than just commendable. The last major debut of Bollywood was probably that of Ahaan's cousin, Ananya Panday, in Student of the Year 2, which earned Rs 70 crore net in India, a number that Saiyaara crossed in just three days. Shanaya Kapoor's recent debut alongside Vikrant Massey in Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan (Rs 1.77 cr) found itself drowning under the Saiyaara wave. Ajay Devgn had to delay the release of Son of Sardaar 2, just to avoid clashing with Saiyaara. Be it the new faces, the title track, or the several tactics applied by Suri and YRF, Saiyaara worked, and everyone involved with the project is now enjoying the fruits of their labour.

Lady Eliza Spencer, niece and look-alike of the late Princess Diana, is officially engaged to her long-time South African partner, Channing Millerd. Their dreamy proposal during a getaway in Santorini has taken the internet by storm. The aristocrat, 33, announced the exciting news with a series of loved-up images from the special moment — which took place during the couple's recent getaway to Santorini, Greece. 'Forever and Ever," Spencer captioned the sweet Instagram post. In the images, Eliza can be seen flashing her diamond sparkler with the stunning views of the Aegean Sea in the background. One of the pictures also shows the romantic set-up, which includes a candle-lit dinner surrounded by flowers overlooking the caldera. However, amid the joyous moments and blessings for the couple, Eliza's father and brother of the late Princess Diana — Earl Charles Spencer — is missing. As per a report by New York Times, he has not publicly congratulated his daughter on the news. In an interaction with Hello Magazine in March, Eliza shared her plans for the wedding. 'We love the idea of a destination wedding," she said in March. 'We feel drawn to Italy, especially somewhere by the ocean — that feels so romantic to us. Spain has that same coastal charm we adore." 'At the same time, Amelia and Greg's wedding in Cape Town was unforgettable, and South Africa will always be home," she added. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

New Jersey Man Buys Limousine Off Facebook At Unbelievable Price, Wife's Reaction Wins Internet

A man from New Jersey bought a second-hand limousine for fun from Facebook Marketplace. His wife called it childish, but the family's joy made the quirky purchase go viral When we think of big, luxurious cars, the first image that often comes to mind is that of a limousine. Known for its long frame and lavish interiors, a limousine is usually seen as a symbol of wealth and status. Recently, one such car became the centre of a viral moment, not because of its grandeur, but due to how it was bought. A man named Tom Adam, from New Jersey, United States, spotted an old limousine listed at a surprisingly cheap price on Facebook Marketplace. Without wasting any time, he purchased it for just £1,300 (approximately Rs 1.5 lakh). His spontaneous buy and the joyous aftermath have now gone viral, with millions viewing the heartwarming video online. Tom, 43, had always dreamed of owning a limousine, not for show, but simply for fun. Though the vehicle wasn't in the best shape and needed repairs costing another £1,000 (around Rs 1.1 lakh), he bought it without a second thought. Tom's wife, Avigail Adam, initially thought it was just another odd whim of her husband's. 'I rolled my eyes, thinking this was another childish act of Tom," she admitted. But the moment she saw him grinning ear to ear inside the car, her opinion changed. 'When I stepped inside and saw how happy he was, I couldn't help but smile too. This was his dream, and now it's come true. I've always believed in turning dreams into reality," Avigail added. The couple shared the moment on Instagram, where the video quickly went viral. In the clip, Tom, Avigail, and their four children can be seen laughing and enjoying a ride in the limousine, which the kids were equally thrilled about. The internet loved their quirky purchase. One user commented, 'The limousine is also a family car now!" while another said, 'This is the best use of adult money I've ever seen." Jokes also poured in, with one user writing, 'If my husband has even nine pence left, he'll buy a limousine," while another added, 'When your heart remains young even after you've grown up…" Avigail, in her social media post, confirmed they had spent another £1,000 on repairs, calling it 'a moving living room." However, she warned others, 'If you're planning to get a limousine from Facebook Marketplace, remember, parking it is a nightmare!"
