With the roaring success of Saiyaara, starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Anit Padda, fans and film enthusiasts have started comparing it to the 2000 cult classic Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai, which launched Hrithik Roshan and Ameesha Patel into overnight stardom. As the buzz around the comparison intensifies, Ameesha Patel has finally broken her silence.
Ameesha's Reaction: “Haven’t Seen Saiyaara, But Wishing Them a Blockbuster Journey”Speaking to the media and sharing her thoughts on social media, Ameesha said she hasn’t yet watched Saiyaara, nor have her close friends. However, she sent her best wishes to the film’s lead pair. In a heartfelt post on X (formerly Twitter), she wrote:
“ Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai Was a Benchmark”“Best wishes to Saiyaara couple Ahaan and Anit! May you continue to create havoc at the box office! Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai may you always shine, welcome to films.”
When asked about the growing comparison between the two debut romantic blockbusters, Ameesha said:
“When Hrithik and I debuted, we became the ‘OG International Crush’ overnight. There was no comparison at that time—we became sensations. And now, 25 years later, if a new-age love story is being compared to Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai, it’s a huge compliment. It only shows what a benchmark that film has become.”
She also added that social media and PR buzz around Saiyaara had already started drawing parallels even before its release.
Saiyaara’s Meteoric RiseJust like Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai, Saiyaara has taken the industry by surprise, raking in ₹106 crores in just four days. With strong youth appeal, romantic storytelling, and blockbuster music, it’s being hailed as one of the biggest debut films in recent years—mirroring the breakout success of Hrithik and Ameesha’s iconic love story.
