Ananya Panday’s cousin, Ahaan Panday , is all set to make his Bollywood debut with the romantic film Saiyaara . He will be seen alongside Aneet Padda, who is also making her debut. The film’s trailer was recently released and is getting a lot of attention on social media. Tara Sutaria , who is rumoured to be Ahaan’s ex-girlfriend, has shown her support for him as he begins his journey in the film industry.
Tara shared the film’s trailer on her Instagram Story and mentioned, “Ahaan Panday, you are unreal. It’s your time now." The actress also sent her “warmest wishes” to director Mohit Suri , actress Aneet Padda, music composers Vishal Mishra and Tanishk Bagchi, and the production house Yash Raj Films.
Sutaria’s Instagram Story grabbed attention because she was once rumoured to be dating Ahaan Panday. The two were said to be in a relationship before joining the film industry, back when Tara was working with Disney. However, neither of them has ever confirmed these rumours.
