Saiyaara teaser: Newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda star in a signature Mohit Suri violent love story. Watch

Yash Raj Films have just released Saiyaara teaser that introduces two newcomers to the industry and the audiences. Although Aneet Padda has already featured in the OTT film Salaam Venky, it will be Ahaan Panday's first visit to the big dance. Nephew of industry veteran Chunky Panday and brother of the new generation star Ananya Panday, the newcomer will be aiming to hit the ground running and build upon his family's position in Bollywood. The film has been directed by Mohit Suri, and while the first look can be deceiving, it has the same vibe as one of his earlier films, Aashiqui 2.
The teaser opens up with piano playing in the background and Padda's character reciting a poem, definitely not something new for a Yash Raj Studios film. We get a glimpse into the lives and personalities of our main characters, as Ahaan rides through the city on a bike while smoking a cigarette, and Padda just seems to be in awe of him in other frames. Our male protagonist is introduced with shirtless scenes and intense guitar playing.

Padda continues her recitation in the background, as several continuous shots give a sneak peek into what the entire movie is going to be about: music, riding a bike, a dollop of violence and a pinch of actual story. What's concerning is that a film, which seems to have music in an integral position, has almost 8 people working on the album, which opens up a very real possibility of 'too many chefs'. The teaser ends with a shot of Padda's character screaming.
Ahaan's sister Ananya seems to have found a sense of direction in the industry, choosing smart roles for herself and delivering on them. Even she took her time to settle in, and her debut in Student of the Year 2 was definitely not the best start. She has since done roles in films like Kho Gaye Hum Kahan (2023) and Kesari Chapter 2 (2025), for which she received appreciation.
Backed by Aditya Chopra and Akshaye Widhani, the film is set to release on July 18.

The maximum time spent was on the action set pieces and crafting the storyline and the conflict which was needed to mount the face-off between Hrithik Roshan and NTR." " War 2 is truly the coming together of Indian cinema with these two huge actors joining forces. We were aware of the expectations this pairing would set in the minds of their fans and the audience and every second was spent thinking of how to give them an experience of a lifetime when they sit in the theatres," concluded Ayan Mukerji.
