Aneet Padda’s ‘Nyaya’ Was Filmed Before ‘Saiyaara’ Release

However, there’s a twist in the story. While it’s true that her next project is a streaming title, the other side of the story is that the show was shot before Saiyaara, and was already in pipeline, but the scheduling of the projects shifted the timelines of release, and Saiyaara got released first. Aneet’s next streaming project, titled Nyaya, is directed by Nitya Mehra and her husband Karan Kapadia. Nyaya was shot before Aneet signed Saiyaara. ‘Saiyaara’: Aamir Khan Sends Love to Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda on Their Film’s Box Office Success, Calls the Mohit Suri Directorial a ‘Melodious and Heartfelt Story.’

Source Confirms Aneet Padda To Focus on Big-Screen Stardom

A trade source said, “Aneet is a big screen heroine for YRF. Nyaya was shot before she signed Saiyaara and it has no bearing on her career trajectory as a theatrical heroine going forward. A girl who is delivering probably a INR 400 crore hit in theatres, is a true Gen Z star at the age of just 22, will be preserved for theatricals”. “There are huge plans to make her the face of a generation and that can be achieved only by consolidating her theatrical equity”, the source added.

Saiyaara has emerged as a surprise hit during a phase when nothing seems to be working for Bollywood at the box-office. The film starring two debutants opened at an impressive figure of INR 21.5 crore in India. The film is set to enter its second week in theatres on Monday, and is going strong at the box-office maintaining its streak of collections. Fact Check: Is Mohit Suri’s ‘Saiyaara’ Copied From Korean Drama ‘A Moment To Remember’?
