Ameesha Patel On Comparisons Of Saiyaara's Ahaan Panday To Hrithik Roshan And Ranbir Kapoor: " Baap Toh Baap Hota Hai"
New Delhi: While the Internet has been praising Ahaan Panday's incredible debut in Mohit Suri's Saiyaara, there have been several comparisons floating around, too. Earlier, the movie was being compared to Kaho Hai, which had also seen a blockbuster opening for a film led by two debutants. Now Ameesha Patel has addressed a fan's query when asked about Ahaan Panday being compared to Hrithik Roshan and Ranbir Kapoor. What's Happening Ameesha Patel responded to a fan when asked about comparisons between Saiyaara's Ahaan Panday and Hrithik Roshan and Ranbir Kapoor, making the rounds. The fan asked, "Amy ma'am... Missed this #AskAmeesha session. One question from me: Have you watched Saiyaara? There's so much hype going on... I've seen people comparing the new actor with Hrithik Roshan and Ranbir Kapoor. What do you think about this? Any comments?" X/Ameesha Patel Ameesha Patel responded, "I haven't seen the film, but I wish them luck. Ahaan, as per reports, is a very promising actor. But baap toh baap hai and beta toh beta hi hoga (A son will always be different from the father). Dugu is a WAR ahead of most stars..." "Ranbir is an ANIMAL of a star... I'm sure it will take newcomers a lot of time to reach that level, and not many can become a Ranbir. Why put pressure? Ahaan will surely grow in time, in his own way, and we wish him all the luck," concluded the actress. Ameesha Patel's Earlier Post Praising Saiyaara In a post shared on X, the actress wrote, "Wishing the Saiyaara couple, Ahaan and Aneet, all the best!! May u continue to create GADAR at the box office in future films as well !! KAHAA NAA PYAAR HAIN shine bright always and welcome to the movies." Wishing the Saiyaara couple ahaan n Aneet all the best !! May u continue to create GADAR at the box office in the future films as well !! KAHAA NAA PYAAR HAIN👍🏻👍🏻🩷 shine bright always n welcome to the movies 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 — ameesha patel (@ameesha_patel) July 21, 2025 On comparisons with Kaho Hai, the actress had told Tellychakkar, "All I can say is, when Hrithik and I made our debut, we became the 'OG international crushes' overnight, and we had become sensations, and there was no comparison back then. And now, after 25 years, if a debut love story is finally being compared to Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai, it shows the kind of benchmark our film has become. I am very grateful, Kaho Hai is the benchmark that's been compared to." In A Nutshell Ameesha Patel responded to a fan's question on X regarding why it is unfair to compare Ahaan Panday so early on with Hrithik Roshan and Ranbir Kapoor. She also wished Ahaan Panday luck and mentioned that he would grow with time.

Ameesha Patel praises 'Saiyaara', slams ‘fake PR culture' in Bollywood: "Only films are true superstars"
Ameesha Patel isn't one to mince words when it comes to speaking about the film industry. In a recent interaction with fans on X (formerly Twitter), the Gadar 2 actress took a dig at Bollywood stars who rely heavily on public relations to shape their image. Without naming names, she tweeted, 'Bollywood actors need to stop labeling themselves as No 1 or No 2 through their public relations teams. We must recognize that only the FILM is the TRUE superstar... generate GADAR at the box office because that's what truly counts.' Ameesha on 'Gadar' When a fan asked why she only referenced Gadar, Ameesha was quick to point out her broader body of work. 'Why limit it to Gadar 1 or 2 or 'Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai'? There are so many hits like 'Humraaz', 'Honeymoon Travels', and songs like "Lazy Lamhe...". Franchises like 'Race' and 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa' are still relevant. I'm not into fake PR, which is probably why I'm often labelled as a one-film wonder,' she wrote. She also addressed her journey in the industry and the obstacles she's overcome. 'It's best to keep surprising some of the naysayers by making a comeback repeatedly with significant numbers at the box office. I've mastered that, and believe me, this trend will persist. I enjoy it when I annoy some of the negative individuals out there,' she added, teasing more projects in the pipeline. Ameesha praises ' Saiyaara ' While she's known for speaking her mind about Bollywood, Ameesha is also a warm and encouraging presence for newcomers in the industry. Recently, she showered praise on 'Saiyaara', the romantic drama starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda , which has been enjoying a strong run at the box office. The film crossed the ₹80 crore mark in its opening weekend and is already drawing comparisons to the 2000 blockbuster Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai, which marked the debut of Hrithik Roshan and Ameesha herself. Reacting to the comparisons, Ameesha shared her support in a heartfelt post on X. She wrote, 'Wishing the Saiyaara couple Ahaan and Aneet all the best!! May you continue to create GADAR at the box office in your future films as well!! Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai shine bright always and welcome to the movies.' The actress was last seen reprising her iconic role as Sakeena in the 2023 blockbuster 'Gadar 2', which turned out to be a massive box office success. While she hasn't officially announced any new film projects since then, she has remained active on social media, frequently interacting with fans and dropping hints about upcoming ventures. Apart from acting, Ameesha is also a producer and model, continuing to explore different facets of the entertainment industry.
