Sonakshi Sinha Praises Ahaan Panday And Aneet Padda's Saiyaara: 'What A Debut'
Last Updated: On Saturday, July 19, Saiyaara, recorded an overall 44.74% Hindi occupancy, indicating growing audience interest. As Saiyaara hits theatres, the romantic drama has started receiving love not just from fans but also from celebrities. Sonakshi Sinha also shared a heartfelt congratulatory message for the debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. The film has been creating records and going strong at the box office. Taking to her Instagram stories, Sonakshi Sinha shared the Saiyaara poster and wrote, 'Many many congratulations @ahaanpanday @aneetpadda – WHAT A DEBUT!!! So happy for you guys, welcome to the movies, enjoy the ride!" She also gave a big shout-out to director Mohit Suri, adding, 'Killed it yet again @mohitsuri". Earlier, Arjun shared a post reading 'What a film'. In the background we can hear the music of Saiyaara. On Saturday, July 19, Saiyaara, recorded an overall 44.74% Hindi occupancy, indicating growing audience interest. The day began with 28.14% occupancy during morning shows, which increased significantly by the afternoon to 50.67%, and further rose in the evening with 55.40% occupancy. Backed by Yash Raj Films, Saiyaara is making waves not just for its impressive box office numbers but also for its unexpected promotional playbook. What makes Saiyaara's strong opening even more surprising is that neither Ahaan nor Aneet had any major visibility before the release. For director Mohit Suri, this could be the comeback he's been waiting for since Ek Villain, which was made on a Rs 39 crore budget and grossed Rs 155 crore worldwide. Earlier, filmmaker Mahesh had said, 'Every generation has love story that defines it. Saiyaara, to me, will be the most definitive romantic film of this generation. When I made Aashiqui, I did it with a lot of purity and I was fortunate that people connected to it deeply and made the two newcomers into overnight stars. I expect Mohit Suri to do the same with Saiyaara." With strong weekend momentum and positive word of mouth, Saiyaara is looking at a strong Sunday and a solid opening weekend total. On the work front, Sonakshi Sinha is currently seen in Nikita Roy. It features Sonakshi as an investigator who exposes fake supernatural claims — until she faces a case that challenges her own beliefs. The film co-stars Arjun Rampal and Paresh Rawal.
