Kunal Kohli tells newcomers Ahaan Panday, Aneet Padda to not have entourage and 'mess it up' as he praises their debut film 'Saiyaara': 'Be the breath of fresh air'

Ananya Panday's cousin Ahaan Panday just made his debut with 'Saiyaara'. The film directed by Mohit Suri also marks the debut of Aneet Padda. While the title track and the other songs of the movie were already getting a lot of love, the film has got a great opening at the box office on Friday. This was quite unexpected for a film with debutants.
There's a lot of positive word of mouth surrounding the movie and thus, it can be expected to see growth. While the audience is appreciating the movie, many film-makers are also showering praise. Director Kunal Kohli of 'Hum Tum' fame took to social media and wrote, "#Saiyaara is a BLOCKBUSTER #AdiChopra has done it again. Conviction of a producer to back a director. Films don’t need stars. Films create stars. #MohitSuri has made a brilliant film. Don’t miss this one guys."




Kohli also cryptically spoke about how every newcomer lately is just the same and get caught up in other things that come with fame. He wrote, "#AhaanPanday #AneetPadda instant stardom is yours. Now please don’t get entourages & mess it up. Be the change. Be the breath of fresh air you are."

Meanwhile, Madhur Bhandarkar also lauded the film and these newcomers. The 'Fashion' director expressed, "Saiyyara has shattered every myth about launching newcomers. No big names, no big PR just raw talent and fearless storytelling.In an industry obsessed with stars, Saiyyara proved that audiences are ready for the unpredictable.A bold reminder: It’s not about who you know. It’s about what you bring. Exciting times for Hindi cinema. Congratulations to @mohit11481 and team!! Kudos to @yrf for backing this!! #Saiyyara #GameChanger #NewWave #BreakTheMyth."
