Akshay Kumar showered his praise on Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda for the success of their musical-romance, Saiyaara. Akshay welcomed the two actors to the film industry while congratulating them for the film’s unprecedented run at the box office.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, Akshay I think it’s the best thing that has happened. It's a great thing for our Hindi film industry that a film featuring a new boy and a new girl, both newcomers, has become a success. It’s a big thing if a newcomers film work so well. I think I welcome them and I am very happy. Anyway, I have noticed that films in our industry have slowly started doing well again.”
He said that he is yet to watch the film but one of his cousins saw it. “My cousin really enjoyed it, and both the boy and girl are amazing. Mohit Suri (director) has done an excellent job, and the way he has used songs is really amazing,” Akshay added.
Saiyaara has been doing exceptionally well at the box office since its release last Friday. It will soon enter the Rs 200 crore club and has already broken the records of Akshay Kumar’s Kesari Chapter 2 and Sky Force which were released earlier this year. It will also surpass the lifetime collection of Housefull 5 soon.
With another vacant week to go before the release of Ajay Devgn’s Son of Sardaar 2 and Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri starrer Dhadak 2, Saiyaara is expected to break some more records. Directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Yash Raj Films, the film also features Geeta Agarwal, Rajesh Kumar, Varun Badola and Alam Khan in pivotal roles.
