Saiyaara star Aneet Padda's next release will be on OTT? YRF sources assure ‘she is a big screen heroine'

Rumour has it that Aneet Padda's next will be an OTT release. Titled Nyaya, the series will be directed by Nitya Mehra of Baar Baar Dekho fame and her husband Karan Kapadia. While it could be a good project for any young actor to secure, Aneet fans might be disappointed that she is moving to streaming platforms after delivering a massive theatrical debut hit like Saiyaara. However, that is not the whole truth. Aneet Padda is being called a '
₹ 400 crore star' over at YRF.
What's next for Aneet?
Speaking to HT Digital, industry sources have revealed that this project in question was shot before Aneet signed Saiyaara. YRF, the production company behind Saiyaara, aims to prop up Aneet as a theatrical heroine post the film's success.
'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 source.
About Nyaya
Nyaya will star Aneet with Fatima Sana Shaikh and Arjun Mathur. It is a fictionalised series based on real-life events. "The show was filmed last year and is now slated to premiere on a major OTT platform soon. It promises to be a gripping story about the complexities of faith and the law. Fatima plays a determined police officer, while Aneet takes on the gritty role of a 17-year-old girl fighting for justice after being sexually assaulted by a powerful spiritual leader," a report on PeepingMoon.com mentioned.
Aneet plays Vaani, a young journalist in Saiyaara, alongside Ahaan Panday. The film is directed by Mohit Suri and has performed better than anyone's expectations. As per a report on Sacnilk.com, the film has crossed ₹215 crore mark.

From Ahaan Panday To Jaya Bachchan: 5 Celebs Who Use Private Instagram Handles

Last Updated: Some Bollywood celebrities choose to maintain private Instagram accounts, or 'finstas,' to connect only with their close friends and family. In the age of social media, where celebrities constantly share glimpses of their lives with millions, some opt for a quieter corner of the Internet, a private Instagram account, or 'finsta". These secret profiles allow stars to connect with close friends and family, away from the spotlight. Unlike their public accounts, curated for fans and brand deals, finstas offer a rare peek into their unfiltered moments, personal interests and playful side. Curious? Here's a closer look. Ahaan Panday Ahaan Panday, the rising star and cousin of Ananya Panday, has made waves with his debut in Saiyaara, earning praise for his charismatic presence. His public Instagram showcases vintage-toned photos and sleek fashion, but there's speculation about a private finsta where he shares more personal content. Many family members, like Khushi Kapoor and Janhvi Kapoor, also follow this private Instagram handle. Ranbir Kapoor Ranbir Kapoor enjoys a massive fanbase and has long been rumoured to maintain a secret Instagram account. Reports suggest that he operates a private profile, with one exposed account featuring a username combining his and wife Alia Bhatt's birthdates, followed by close friends like Ayan Mukerji. Ranbir hinted in 2025 that he might make it public, but for now, it's likely a space for personal posts and private interactions. Jaya Bachchan Jaya Bachchan, a veteran actress and politician, is notably absent from public social media. Unlike her family members, Amitabh, Abhishek, and Aishwarya, who engage online, Jaya reportedly avoids public platforms. However, there's speculation she might maintain a private Instagram account to stay connected with close family. In a podcast with her granddaughter, Navya Naveli Nanda, Shweta Bachchan hinted at her private Instagram account. Shweta asked a question to her mom, 'Would you do without Instagram?" Jaya Bachchan replied with a simple 'Yes." To which Shweta further asked her, 'Well then, why are you on it," and teased, 'secretly." Navya interrupted and said, She is really not on it. Shweta then disclosed, 'She (Jaya ji) is on it; it's a good destresser." Navya revealed, 'She just looks at her family. She just follows us." Allu Arjun Allu Arjun, the Pushpa star and one of South India's most-followed actors with 28.36 million followers on his public Instagram, is rumoured to maintain a private account for closer connections. According to Sacnilk, his massive online presence is carefully curated for fans and brand endorsements. A private finsta would likely allow him to share unfiltered glimpses of his family life or downtime, offering a contrast to the high-energy, stylish posts that dominate his public feed. Saif Ali Khan Saif Ali Khan has openly admitted to having a private Instagram account under a pseudonym inspired by one of his movie characters. With his public account focused on professional updates, his finsta is likely a low-key space for sharing personal moments with family, including Kareena Kapoor and their children.

Did You Know War 2's 'India First' Oath Is Co-Written By YRF Head Aditya Chopra?

Last Updated: Yash Raj Films released the War 2 trailer, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, directed by Ayan Mukerji. The film's India First oath was co-written by producer Aditya Chopra. War 2 Movie Update: Yash Raj Films has released the trailer for the most anticipated Indian movie of the year, War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, who engage in a fierce and relentless battle. The trailer went viral in no time, featuring superstars from both North and South. One of the key moments from the trailer was the oath taken by Hrithik and NTR, pledging to save India at any cost. For the unversed, it was written by both Aditya Chopra and Shridhar Raghavan, the head writer of the YRF Spy Universe franchise. Kiara Advani plays the female lead. Shridhar Raghavan revealed that YRF head Aditya Chopra had a clear idea in mind before penning the oath. He revealed, 'Adi was clear that no plot points of War 2 should be revealed in the trailer. So, we created a fictional oath for agents during their induction into covert task forces, as they prepare to sacrifice everything to protect our motherland. This oath reflects the intense, dramatic story of the film. With War 2 and each film, we reveal more about the shadowy world of the YRF Spy Universe—who these agents are, what links them, and their origin stories." He added, 'As the trailer shows, Hrithik and NTR are mirror images, extraordinary and ferocious soldiers bound by duty to protect India. But why are they battling each other? What twist of destiny has set them on this explosive collision course? The idea was to build intrigue around this." Shridhar further elaborated on the 'India First' element mentioned in the trailer. 'INDIA FIRST has always been the driving force for every agent in the Spy Universe, binding them together. We clearly articulate it as a motto here because it plays a crucial role in War 2. It is the heart and soul of the film. From now on, India First will be the war cry of every agent in the YRF Spy Universe," he said. The YRF Spy Universe oath The YRF spy universe oath, said by Hrithik Roshan, at the start of War 2 trailer, can be read: 'Main shapath leta hun – Ki main apna naam, apni pehchaan, apna ghar, parivaar sab tyaag kar ek saaya ban jaunga. Ek gumnaam… benaam… anjaan saaya. Main shapath leta hun – Main woh sab karunga… jo koi aur nahin kar sakta. Jo jung koi nahin lad sakta… woh main ladunga. Har dost, har saathi, har us chehre se munh mod lunga jise kabhi pyaar kiya. Aur palat kar kabhi peeche nahin dekhunga. Achai burai, sahi galat, paap punya ki har lakeer ko mita dunga. Main woh balidaan dunga jiska koi gawaah nahin hoga. Jiski keemat main apni jaan se… ya phir apni aatma se chukaunga. Ab main insaan nahin sirf ek hathyar hun… Jung ka hathyar ya to maarunga ya phir marunga. Death Before Dishonour. Service Before Self. India First. YRF is celebrating 25 years of cinematic legacy with Hrithik Roshan, NTR and Kiara Advani through War 2 promotions. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, this YRF Spy Universe film is set to release in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil on August 14, 2025 worldwide.
