“Saiyaara Se Aashiqui Ho Gayi”: Shraddha Kapoor Calls Ahaan Panday, Aneet Padda’s Film “Pure Magic”
Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda’s ‘Saiyaara’ has zoomed past the Rs 100 crore mark in just four days at the box office.
Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor may very well owe the turning point of her career to filmmaker Mohit Suri. It was his 2013 romantic drama ‘Aashiqui 2’ that made her, along with co-star Aditya Roy Kapur, overnight stars. And the film remains iconic for its music and emotional depth. So it comes as no surprise that Shraddha Kapoor has now emerged as one of the biggest cheerleaders for Mohit Suri’s latest directorial venture ‘Saiyaara’. Backed by Yash Raj Films, the film marks Ahaan Panday’s debut and also features Aneet Padda.
'Saiyaara' seems to have struck a chord with the viewers as it has set the box office on fire. Amid the movie’s massive success, Shraddha Kapoor visited a theatre on Monday night to watch the film. She also shared her review on Instagram Stories along with some stills from the film.
“Saiyaara se Aashiqui ho gayi hai mujhe,” wrote Shraddha Kapoor in one of her Instagram Stories.
In another Instagram Story, she shared a still of Aneet Padda from the film and wrote, “Pure cinema, pure drama, pure magic. Uff. Bohot time baad itna emotion feel kiya hai. Iss moment ke liye 5 baar dekhoongi.”
