Ahaan Panday's Private Instagram Account Revealed, Is Followed By Ananya Panday, Aneet Padda
Fans are convinced that the account belongs to Ahaan due to the star-studded follower list. Ahaan Panday has become quite the sensation since his Bollywood debut in Mohit Suri's Saiyaara. Amid the hype surrounding Ahaan Panday, fans have discovered his private Instagram account. The username of the alleged private account is @ and it has the image of a dog playing a guitar as its display picture. While Ahaan hasn't confirmed that the account belongs to him, fans are convinced that it is indeed the actor's private account, as it is followed by Ananya Panday, Aneet Padda, Khushi Kapoor, Tara Sutaria, Alaya F, Aisha Ahmed and Prit Kamani, to name a few. Have a look here: It is not uncommon for Bollywood celebrities to have private accounts. Previously, Khushi Kapoor and Janhvi Kapoor have also admitted that they have a 'finsta' for their close friends and family. Several celebrities, including Alia Bhatt, have mentioned that even Ranbir Kapoor uses a private account to keep a tab on social media. As for Ahaan's alleged finsta, at the time of publishing, the account has 508 followers and 206 posts. The account follows 1603 other accounts. Meanwhile, Saiyaara is proving to be a box office beast, and it's doing what most romantic dramas rarely manage — pulling massive crowds and raking in serious money. Directed by Mohit Suri, the film has crossed the Rs 300 crore mark worldwide in just nine days, making it one of the biggest box office stories of 2025. According to early estimates as quoted by trade tracker Sacnilk, Saiyaara earned around Rs 30 crore (India net) on its tenth day, that is Sunday. With strong word of mouth and no real competition at the moment, the film's theatrical run is expected to continue at full throttle into the coming week. At this pace, Saiyaara could soon surpass the lifetime collection of Kabir Singh (Rs 377 crore) — which would make it the highest-grossing Indian romantic film of all time (non-inflation-adjusted). All eyes are now on how it performs in its second full week. First Published: July 28, 2025, 11:07 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
