Ahaan Panday, making his Bollywood debut in “Saiyaara” as Krrish Kapoor, shared stills from the film on Instagram on Thursday, attributing the film’s success to his late grandmother. he wrote, “Kabhi yeh nahi socha tha mujhe itna pyaar milega, dadi mujhe hamesha raj bulati thi, kaash woh aaj krish ko dekh paati, bhagwan ko hamesha yeh kehta tha ki agar duniya mujhe pasand na bhi kare, Mujhe pata tha..sitaaron mein sitara, ek tanha tara-dadi meri..wahan se dekh kar mujhe.. muskuraengi – ye sirf aapke liye hai dadi (I never thought I would receive so much love. Dadi always used to call me Raj. I wish she could see Krish today. I used to tell God that even if the world doesn’t like me, I knew… among the stars, there’s one lone star-my dadi. She will look at me from there… and smile. This is only for you, dadi).” Panday’s grandmother, reportedly named Shanti Devi, passed away in 2022.
Panday also acknowledged the support of his fans, stating he feels their love “in his bones” and promising to dedicate himself to his craft. He specifically addressed aspiring artists, saying, “I promise to work twice as hard, be twice as good, and to do this for you all, but also do it for the child in me, the child who had two left feet. The child who got jitters before going on stage,the child who was always told he couldn’t do it,we all have that child in us. I hope you all keep making that child happy because that child in you deserves it all. Thank you for this miracle. I wish I could hug every single one of you; Tere bina to kuch naa rahenge (Won’t be anything without you).”

All this love you’ve been so generous to give me, it’s sitting heavy in my chest, and I don’t know what to do except give it back. I’m scared of what’s next, scared I won’t be enough, but whatever I have, even the smallest piece of me, I’ll put it out there.”
Padda continued, “If it makes you laugh, or cry, or remember something you thought you’d forgotten, if it makes you feel a little less alone – then maybe that’s what I’m here for. And I’ll keep trying. Imperfect, but with everything I’ve got. Because I love you.”
