Did Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda receive hefty paycheck for Saiyaara? Check out

Pink Villa20-07-2025
Saiyaara is breaking records at the box office. The Mohit Suri directorial has turned out to be surprisingly impressive. The audience is loving the onscreen chemistry of debutant Ahaan Panday and the female lead, Aneet Padda. Ever since the romantic drama hit the big screens, cinegoers have not been able to help but shower praise on the movie. Well, they are also curious about the fees received by Ahaan and Aneet for Saiyaara. So, here are all the details that you must know.
How much did Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda earn from Saiyaara?
There is no second thought that Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda have become stars overnight. Talking about their paychecks, no official details are available. However, according to the reports, fresh faces that get launched under big and renowned production banners receive around Rs 3-5 crore.
So, Ahaan is likely to have earned somewhat around the above-mentioned figure. Since he is related to Chunky Panday, it is quite possible that Ahaan might have gotten a bit higher than the given bracket. But then, nothing is official.
On the other hand, Aneet Padda is an outsider. But despite such a fact, her earnings are not far behind. However, reportedly, Ahaan has earned more than the Big Girls Don't Cry fame.
Mohit Suri's Saiyaara fees
Going by the media reports, Saiyaara is said to have been created on a budget of Rs 60 crore, including P&A expenses. Mohit Suri, the director and creative mind behind the film, has got a handsome paycheck. Reports claim that he usually charges Rs 6-8 crore for each film but it also depends upon the success ratio.
More about Saiyaara
The musical romantic drama, bankrolled by Yash Raj Films, is full of surprises. From emotional storytelling to soulful music, it has everything that a romantic film should ideally have. While Ahaan plays a struggling musician, Krish Kapoor, Aneet Padda is seen as an aspiring writer, Vaani Batra.

Kingdom box office collection day 1 early report: Vijay Deverakonda starrer starts strong, but lags behind Liger

Kingdom box office collection day 1 early report: Vijay Deverakonda's highly anticipated spy-action drama Kingdom hit theatres worldwide on July 31. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the film got off to a strong start, earning Rs 7.07 crore on its opening day. Kingdom recorded an overall occupancy of 56.73% in the Telugu language on Thursday, with morning shows at 63.56%, afternoon shows at 56.52%, and evening shows at 50.12%. The highest theatre occupancy was reported in the Warangal region, at an impressive 85.67%.' Despite earning Rs 7.07 crore at the box office so far, Kingdom may fall short of Vijay Deverakonda's highest opener, Liger, which collected Rs 15.95 crore on its first day. The film is also facing stiff competition from Mohit Suri's Saiyaara, starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, which has already crossed the Rs 270 crore mark. Several other releases are crowding theatres as well, including Pawan Kalyan's Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 – Sword vs Spirit and Mahavatar Narsimha. Dhadak 2, starring Tripti Dimri and Siddhant Chaturvedi, and Son of Sardaar 2 are also set to hit screens on August 1. ALSO READ | Kingdom movie review: Vijay Devarakonda bleeds and broods in this emotionally distant epic An excerpt from SCREEN's review of Kingdom read, 'Without a doubt, Kingdom is a product of the current filmmaking environment. It would be unfair to suggest that the makers of Kingdom have misled their audience all along, because the resulting film contains just what was advertised. However, despite the painstaking setup, Kingdom never truly tethers us emotionally to its story. Though the film juggles many elements, it never settles on a central thread to bring them into harmony.' Directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri and produced by Sithara Entertainments, Srikara Studios, and Fortune Four Cinemas, Kingdom also features Satyadev, Bhagyashri Borse, Venkitesh and Manish Chaudhari.

Dhadak Box Office Preview: Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri starrer run time, screen count, advance booking & opening day

After launching Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khattar with Dhadak in 2018, Karan Johar is set for Dhadak 2 with two upcoming talents – Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri. The romantic saga releases on August 1, 2025 and much like the first part is an intense love story set against the backdrop of music. The Shazia Iqbal directorial has been certified U/A by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) with an approved run time of 2 hours 26 minutes (146 minutes). The film is seeing an all-India release by Zee Studios in consultation with Dharma Productions, and the partners have strategically opted for a restrained release on about 1000 screens. The release is planned more towards the urban markets, with the hope of a surge over the weekend based on audience feedback. The advance bookings for Dhadak 2 opened on Wednesday evening, and the response has been on the expected lines. The film has sold about 15,000 tickets in the national chains as on Thursday at 7.00 PM and is headed for a closing in the vicinity of 25,000 tickets. The first day business of Dhadak 2 is expected to be in the range of Rs 3.75 crore to Rs 4.25 crore, and the hope is to capitalize from this start and grow over the weekend. Dhadak 2 is a film relying on word of mouth of the audience, and if reports come in its favour, the romantic saga will be looking to show big spikes on Saturday and Sunday to consolidate with good results over the weekend. With romance being the flavour of the season, Dhadak 2 could spring a surprise if reports from the audience come in its favour.

Central Schemes Empower Karnataka's Artists

Bengaluru: The Union Ministry of Culture has extended financial and promotional support to hundreds of artists across the state in 2024-25. According to details shared in the Lok Sabha, 397 veteran artists have been provided with a monthly pension under a dedicated scheme aimed at supporting senior artists. This initiative targets individuals aged 60 and above with an annual income below Rs. 72,000, offering them Rs. 6,000 monthly to honour their lifelong contributions to the arts. In cases of an artist's passing, the financial aid seamlessly transfers to their spouse, ensuring continued support. The information came to light following a query raised by Udupi-Chikkamagalur MP Kota Srinivas Poojari during a parliamentary session on July 28. Union Culture and Tourism Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat outlined the various measures taken to uplift artists in Karnataka, emphasising the government's commitment to preserving cultural heritage. Beyond veteran artists, 716 folk artists from Karnataka have benefited from initiatives spearheaded by the South Zone Cultural Centre (SZCC) in Thanjavur, which is an autonomous body under the Ministry of Culture. These artists received support through honorariums, travel allowances, accommodation, and local transportation for their participation in cultural events organised by the SZCC. Additionally, programs like the Guru-Shishya Parampara (Repertory Grant) have been instrumental, providing group leaders with Rs. 15,000 per month and group members with Rs. 2,000 to Rs. 10,000 monthly. The Cultural Function and Production Grant Scheme has also played a key role, offering up to Rs. 20 lakh to facilitate cultural festivals and programs in the state. Karnataka's artists have also gained recognition on national and international stages. Many have been empanelled for prestigious events such as the Rashtriya Sanskriti Mahotsavs and global platforms like the 'Festival of India' under the Global Engagement Scheme. These opportunities not only provide financial backing but also amplify the visibility of Karnataka's rich artistic traditions. MP Poojari's inquiry specifically sought details on financial schemes and efforts to promote and preserve Karnataka's diverse folk art forms. This robust support system reflects a broader commitment to safeguarding India's artistic legacy while empowering its creators, positioning Karnataka as a vibrant hub of cultural expression in 2024-25.
