Ahaan Panday's Mom Giggles As Paps Call Her 'Krish Kapoor Ki Mummy', Asks 'Saiyaara Dekhi?'
Deanne Panday smiled wide as paparazzi called her 'Krish Kapoor ki mummy' post Saiyaara's success. Her reply? 'Picture dekhi ya nahi?' Ahaan Panday's debut film Saiyaara continues to make waves at the box office, and it seems like the actor's mother, Deanne Panday, is soaking in every bit of the celebratory spotlight. In a heartwarming video doing the rounds on social media, Deanne was spotted at a public event where she was greeted by paparazzi in a rather cheeky manner. As she posed for the shutterbugs, one pap called out to her saying, 'Arey, Krish Kapoor ki mummy," while referring to Ahaan's character in Saiyaara. The wellness expert and celebrity mom couldn't help but burst into laughter. Her candid reaction, paired with a warm smile, won over netizens. In a brief yet adorable exchange, Deanne responded to the media with a playful query of her own: 'Picture dekhi ya nahi?" referring to Saiyaara's recent theatrical release. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Voompla (@voompla) Saiyaara has officially crossed Rs 250 crore net in India and over Rs 300 crore worldwide—making it one of the biggest sleeper hits of 2025. The film is now eyeing the Rs 275 crore mark domestically by the end of its second week. Directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Yash Raj Films, Saiyaara has been lauded for its emotional storytelling, fresh casting, and soul-stirring soundtrack. It marks Ahaan Panday's acting debut and has also given a massive career boost to actress Aneet Padda. The film also stars Rajesh Kumar, Varun Badola, Alam Khan, Sid Makkar, and Shaan Groverr in supporting roles. According to a report by The Times of India, the makers have closed a deal with Netflix for the OTT release of Saiyaara. However, given its continued box office success, the film's digital debut has now been pushed closer to Diwali. This move is expected to give the film an extended shelf life and cater to festive viewers at home. Released on July 18, 2025, Saiyaara is loosely inspired by the 2004 Korean romantic drama A Moment to Remember. The film follows Krish Kapoor, a disillusioned musician who crosses paths with the introspective poet Vaani Batra. Together, they navigate love, loss, and healing in a story that has struck an emotional chord with audiences.

Better Late Than Single Finale: How many couples were formed and who did not escape ‘eternal single' squad?
Always solo, Korean men and women in their 20s have a life ahead of them, but what remains is their will to find love, and this Netflix reality show taps into 10 such individuals. Bringing on established young people to give them a fair chance at finding a partner, Better Late Than Single got famous for some controversial moments, including remarks from the contestants. Even the panelists, Seo In Guk, Kang Han Na, Lee Eun Ji, and Car, the Garden (Cha Jung Won) were surprised. Now, as the show comes to an end after 10 episodes, we're taking a look at the two couples who were formed on the show. Which couples ended up together on Better Late Than Single? One of the most unexpected and debatable relationships came to fruition towards the end of last week's episodes. When Ha Jeong Mok broke Yi Do's heart during part 8, almost all of the internet turned against him, calling out his sudden change of heart and lack of clarification to the girls interested in him, including Lee Min Hong. On the other hand, his feelings towards Park Ji Yeon were on a climb, surprising everyone. The latter's confession of a difficult childhood made Ha Jeong Mok's feelings towards her grow stronger and faster. Eventually, Ha Jeong Mok and Park Ji Yeon turned out to be the first confirmed couple on the show, after confirming their mutual liking for each other. Kang Ji Su, much like the male star above, was popular among her peers, being pursued by the likes of Kang Hyun Kyu, Kim Sang Ho, and Kim Seung Li. She tried her hand at dating each one of them, and while the first went on a rant about how much he was falling for her, the other one could not give her enough attention. It was Kim Seung Li with his quick admissions of faults and eagerness to work it out with her that worked in the end. Kang Ji Su and Kim Seung Li turned out to be the second couple from the show. Meanwhile, other contestants on the program, Noh Jae Yun, Kim Yeo Myung, Kim Sang Ho, Lee Min Hong, Yi Do, Kang Hyun Kyu, Lee Seung Chan, and Kim Mi Ji continued on their path as 'eternal singles'.
