Saiyaara Star Aneet Padda Gets Emotional Watching Surprise Tribute From Her School
After the success of Saiyaara, Aneet Padda received a heartfelt surprise tribute from her alma mater, Springdale Senior School.
Aneet Padda is currently basking in the soaring success of her recently released film 'Saiyaara', alongside Ahaan Panday. The actress was left surprised and emotional after she received a heartfelt tribute from her alma mater, Springdale Senior School, Amritsar. The video featured her former teachers, principal, mentors and current students lauding Aneet's journey, and recalling fond memories with her. They congratulated her and expressed how proud they feel. In response, Aneet penned an emotional note, stating that she had the biggest smile on her face and tears in her eyes, as she watched the lovely video. She expressed her hope that she's making her school proud—not just with her work, but with the person she's becoming.
Aneet Padda shared the lovely video which shows her teachers and mentors praising her journey from the classrooms of Spring Dale Senior School to the big screens. The video features nostalgic throwback photos of Aneet from school events, including annual functions and other memorable moments. The Saiyaara actress wrote, 'I don't even know how to put this into words. Watching this, I just sat there with the biggest smile on my face and tears in my eyes. Dales is where I've grown up, where I've learnt how to dream big, where people believed in me long before I even had the courage to believe in myself. To see my teachers, my mentors, and even the students come together to make something this beautiful is overwhelming in the best way."
She further added, 'Every time I step onto a set now, there's a part of me that's still that little girl in a Springdale uniform, sitting in class, daydreaming about this exact life. And I know I wouldn't be here without the people who taught me, guided me, and loved me through every phase of growing up. I hope I make you proud, not just with the film, but with who I'm becoming. I can't wait to come back, and just say thank you to each of you, properly, face to face. You've given me so much more than an education, you've given me a piece of myself I'll never lose. Thank you for seeing me, for cheering for me, and for reminding me that no matter how far I go, I'll always have a home to come back to."
Aneet Padda's alma matar posted the video on Instagram with a caption that read, 'From Spring Dale Senior School to the Silver Screen — A Star is Born. We are immensely proud to celebrate the success of our distinguished alumna, Aneet Padda, who has delivered a compelling lead performance in Saiyaara, a major cinematic release by Yash Raj Films."
