After enjoying an impressive run at the box office, Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's romantic drama Saiyaara is now gearing up for its digital debut. While the film continues to perform well in theatres, the makers have reportedly locked in a date for its OTT release. According to a recent post shared by YRF's casting director, Shanoo Sharma, Saiyaara will begin streaming on Netflix on September 12. Aneet Padda and Ahaan Panday in a still from Mohit Suri's romantic drama Saiyaara. Though an official confirmation from Yash Raj Films is still awaited, YRF's casting director Shanoo Sharma added fuel to the speculation by resharing a report on her Instagram stories, which claims the movie will indeed arrive on Netflix next month. A screengrab of Shanoo Sharma's Instagram Story. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, Shanoo Sharma shared insights into Ahaan Panday's early training under the YRF banner. She revealed that both Ahaan and Sharvari (who debuted in Bunty Aur Babli 2 in 2021) underwent intense acting workshops before their respective debuts. 'The first three years went into training.

He joined the production team of The Railway Men as an Assistant Director, gaining valuable on-ground experience before stepping into the spotlight with Saiyaara.

Saiyaara OTT release: When and where to watch Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's hit film online
Saiyaara is enjoying an exceptional run at the box office, and now, even before its theatrical journey concludes, the makers seem to have locked its OTT debut date. According to reports, the Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda romantic musical will drop on Netflix this September. While there has been no official announcement, YRF's casting director Shanoo Sharma shared a story on her social media that backs the buzz. She reshared a post from OTTFLIX claiming that Saiyaara will stream on Netflix on September 12, 2025, a move that has all but confirmed the release. Still holding strong despite new releases Even with fresh titles like Ajay Devgn's Son of Sardaar 2 and Triptii Dimri–Siddhant Chaturvedi's Dhadak 2 hitting theaters, Saiyaara remains rock solid at the box office. Written by Rohan Shankar and Sankalp Sadanah, the film features notable performances from Geeta Agrawal Sharma, Sid Makkar, Shaad Randhawa, Rajesh Kumar, and Varun Badola. It also marks the first collaboration between filmmaker Mohit Suri and Yash Raj Films . 03:03 'Saiyaara' star Ahaan's mother pens a heartfelt note for him, special thanks for Mohit Suri Inches away from surpassing Salman Khan's 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' After 24 days in cinemas, Saiyaara has amassed an impressive Rs 318 crore in India net collections. That puts it just Rs 2.34 crore shy of overtaking Salman Khan's Bajrangi Bhaijaan (Rs 320.34 crore) to claim the 14th spot among the highest-grossing Hindi films of all time. The milestone would not only displace a beloved Salman Khan blockbuster to 15th place but also cement Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda as two of Bollywood's most promising new talents. With its current pace, industry trackers expect Saiyaara to achieve the feat before the big Independence Day clash between Rajinikanth's Coolie and Hrithik Roshan–Jr NTR's War 2 on August 14.

Adequate security provided to Kapil Sharma: Mumbai Police after firing outside Canada cafe
The Mumbai police on Monday said that following the two incidents of firings outside comedian Kapil Sharma's restaurant in Canada's Surrey last month, they have provided 'adequate security' to him. When asked about the security provided to the comedian, a senior official from the Mumbai police said, 'Adequate security has been provided to him.' When asked if Sharma had given any official complaint to the Mumbai police, the official replied in negative. Soon after the firing, a social media message had been put up by an account in the name of Goldy Dhillon that had the display picture of incarcerated gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. In the message, the person claimed that Goldy Dhillon from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang was taking the responsibility for the attack. The first attack at the comedian's newly opened Kap's Cafe took place on July 10 when nearly 10 rounds were fired. No one was injured. A day after the attack, a person claiming to be a member of Lawrence Bishnoi gang issued a warning that actors, producers and directors working with Salman Khan will not be spared. Sharma is suspected to have been targeted by the gang as he is known to share close ties with actor Salman Khan who appeared in the first episode of the Kapil Sharma's Netflix show's third season. Salman has been on the radar of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang for allegedly shooting down a blackbuck during a film shooting in Rajasthan in 1998. Blackbuck is considered to be sacred by the Bishnoi community. The actor has been given high security since April 14 last year when a few rounds were fired outside his Bandra residence.
