Ahaan Panday
and
Aneet Padda
's Bollywood debut film 'Saiyaara' is not only doing well at the box office but also receiving a lot of love online. Celebrities like Karan Johar, Shraddha Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Varun Dhawan have praised the duo on social media.
Even the film's composer,
Tanishk Bagchi
, can't stop gushing about their impressive performance.
In an interview with News18 Showsha, composer Tanishk Bagchi shared that both Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda were present in the studio when the chartbuster title track of 'Saiyaara' was being recorded. So, what was his first impression of them? 'The first time I met Ahaan was at Yash Raj Films when we were recording the title track. He's a very humble kid.
He doesn't have the tantrums or the attitude of a hero. He's also a brilliant actor.
At that time, I didn't get a glimpse of his acting chops but I liked his energy and presence, he revealed."
Strong Feeling About Ahaan and Aneet's Stardom
Tanishk Bagchi recalled telling Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda early on that he had a intuition feeling their film 'Saiyaara' would be a big success. He believed they had the potential to become major stars. Bagchi also offered them a heartfelt reminder — to stay grounded and not lose sight of their roots, as he has seen many rise to fame quickly and change, only to fall just as fast.

Tanishk on Seeing Ahaan Perform His Song on the Big Screen
He said it was a special moment for him to see Ahaan, 'When I watched the film, I realised that Mohit sir ne usko jaise train kiya tha, usne waise hi kaam kiya. He followed his director through and through. They've that germ in them. I hope they keep their heads down and work hard. They're very lucky to have found a teacher like Mohit sir right in their first film. Maine unko yeh bhi kahan ki tum log innocent bachche ho, toh uss baat ko maintain karke rakhna.
"
He further stated that there were two versions of the title track video from 'Saiyaara' — one for the film's theatrical release and another in a montage style. He shared that director
Mohit Suri
showed him both, and in each version, Ahaan Panday looked striking. Tanishk felt the music fit Ahaan perfectly.
Compares Ahaan Panday to
Rishi Kapoor
Praising Ahaan's performance he compared him to the legendary Rishi Kapoor. He recalled how Rishi Kapoor looked completely natural while playing instruments like the guitar or piano on screen. That's how good his sync was. That's a skill set every actor should have. Mohit sir passed this on to Ahaan and it showed. Film mein kya attitude hai uska! I'm telling you, Ahaan is going to be our next big star, he added."

Exclusive - Shubhangi Atre to Priyamvada Kant: TV celebs share their thoughts on Friendship's Day

Actors talk about friends they met on their sets and created a lifelong bond. While lights, cameras, and action bring stories to life on screen, it's the off-screen moments that sometimes leave the deepest impact. This Friendship's Day, actors take a heartfelt walk down memory lane, sharing how bonds formed on set blossomed into lifelong friendships. From spiritual connections to unwavering support through personal trials, these stories show that the strongest friendships often grow in the most unexpected places. These include Priyamvada Kant (Latika, Gharwali Pedwali), Sapna Sikarwar (Bimlesh, Happu Ki Ultan Paltan), and Shubhangi Atre (Angoori Bhabhi, Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai). Priyamvada Kant, aka Latika from Gharwali Pedwali, shares, 'I share a very special bond with Krishna Bhardwaj . We first met eight years ago while working on a show together, and since then, we have remained in constant touch. What makes our friendship unique is the deep spiritual connection we share. Outwardly, we are both hyper and fun-loving, but at heart, we are calm and grounded. That inner stillness is what we truly bond over. Amidst all the chaos and drama on set, we always found comfort in each other's presence. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Are you ready to conquer a planet?

' Sapna Sikarwar, aka Bimlesh from Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, shares, 'Geetanjali and I connected during a shoot years ago, and our bond slowly grew from scene partners to soul sisters. We are both strong-headed, yet we balance each other perfectly. What I love most about her is her compassion. Even in her busiest moments, she thinks of others. Once, I was facing a deeply personal challenge, and she dropped everything to be by my side. She didn't just comfort me; she lifted me with strength. The best part is now we are working on the same show and playing sisters onscreen in Happu Ki Ultan Paltan. Ours is a friendship where even silence speaks volumes. In a fast-moving world, she's my constant—a reminder that true friendship isn't about frequency, but presence.' Shubhangi Atre, aka Angoori Bhabi from Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai, shares, 'I met Megha years ago at an industry event, and instantly felt a warm, honest vibe. That spark turned into a deep friendship over time. I'll never forget a moment during my struggling days in Mumbai when I found myself without a place to stay. In panic, I called Megha. Without hesitation, she said, 'Stay right there, I'm coming,' and took me home. That gesture gave me not just shelter but strength. Megha's honesty and support are her most beautiful traits. She tells you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear. With her, I didn't just find a friend—I found a sister for life.' Priyamvada Kant Reflects on 15-Year Journey
