Saiyaara Trailer Out: Audiences Surprised by Ahaan Panday’s Screen Presence, Praise His Effort Over Other Star Kids

The trailer of Saiyaara, the much-anticipated romantic drama marking the debut of Ahaan Panday, has finally dropped, and it’s already causing ripples across social media. Ahaan, who is the cousin of Bollywood actress Ananya Panday and the nephew of Chunky Panday, seems to have impressed a large section of the internet with his performance, especially in an era where star kids are constantly under scrutiny.

Soon after the trailer’s release, social media was abuzz with reactions—and surprisingly, most of them were positive. Viewers praised Ahaan for his sincerity and the visible hard work he has put into his first film. Unlike many other newcomers from film families who are often accused of coasting on their surnames, Ahaan appears to have made a conscious effort to stand out and earn his place.

A user wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “This guy actually seems to be trying. Unlike most other ‘nepobabies,’ Ahaan Panday is giving his all. Respect.” Another comment read, “Didn’t expect much, but the Saiyaara trailer surprised me. He’s got potential.” Several others echoed similar sentiments, stating that Ahaan’s acting and screen presence were refreshingly natural.

Directed by debutant filmmaker Aditya Lal, Saiyaara is a modern-day love story with elements of intense emotion, youthful charm, and cultural clashes. The trailer showcases Ahaan in a complex role, playing a young man caught between love, family expectations, and self-identity. From intense dramatic sequences to romantic interludes, Ahaan is seen navigating a wide range of emotions—something that seems to have struck a chord with the viewers.

While the film also stars a relatively new face opposite Ahaan, much of the buzz is centered around him, given the constant comparisons to other star kids launched in the past few years. Many netizens have pointed out that despite his privileged background, Ahaan doesn’t appear entitled on screen. Instead, he seems grounded, raw, and hungry to prove himself.

Of course, the trailer’s visuals, cinematography, and soulful background score have also earned appreciation, but it’s Ahaan’s performance that seems to be the unexpected highlight.

In an industry where second-generation actors often face criticism for lacking depth or seriousness in their craft, Ahaan Panday’s debut—at least judging by the trailer—appears to be a refreshing exception. It remains to be seen how the film performs at the box office, but for now, audiences are willing to give this young debutant a fair shot.

Saiyaara is scheduled to hit theatres later this year.
