Aneet Padda Calls Ahaan Panday “One of the Best Men in the World” Amid Relationship Rumors: “He’s Always Supported Me”

Saiyaara co-stars Aneet Padda and Ahaan Panday attended an award ceremony in Delhi last night, where they were honored amid growing speculation about their rumored relationship. The evening proved emotional for both actors, as they delivered heartfelt speeches thanking each other, their families, and everyone who contributed to their debut film. At one point, Aneet was moved to tears while acknowledging Ahaan’s unwavering support throughout their journey.

“Thank you to my best friend and co-actor, Ahaan Panday,” Aneet said during her speech. “You guys have no idea how many times things became extremely challenging on set, and he has always supported me. So thank you so much. Being on stage with one of the greatest men on the planet is the greatest feeling in the world.” Her emotional tribute left Ahaan visibly touched, and the pair celebrated their win with a joyful dance before sharing a warm embrace on stage.

Ahaan, who accepted the award alongside Aneet, expressed gratitude to his family, friends, and the entire Saiyaara team. “Everyone who has helped me, and the whole team of Saiyaara—the film crew—I know how thankless the job can be, so thank you,” he said, acknowledging casting director Shanoo Sharma, director Mohit Suri, and producer Aditya Chopra for believing in his potential. “It wouldn’t have been possible without all of you. And to the press and the audience—this means the world.”

A viral post shared by fans highlighted Aneet’s emotional praise for Ahaan, calling him “the world’s greatest man” and someone who always has her back. Ahaan, nearly in tears, jokingly said, “I’m going to KMS,” reflecting how overwhelmed he felt in the moment.

Rumors surrounding Ahaan and Aneet’s relationship have been circulating for months. In a recent interview, Ahaan addressed the speculation and clarified the nature of their bond. He emphasized that despite what the internet believes, they are not dating. “Aneet is my closest friend. We’re not together, despite what everyone assumes. Chemistry isn’t always romantic—it’s about comfort, security, and being seen. We’ve given that to each other. Even though she’s not my girlfriend, I’ll never have a bond like the one I share with Aneet,” he told GQ.

On the work front, Ahaan Panday is gearing up to begin filming a romantic action film directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, with Sharvari Wagh and Aaishvary Thackeray reportedly joining the cast. Meanwhile, Aneet Padda is set to headline Shakti Shalini, the next major installment in the expanding MHCU horror-comedy universe.
