“I Love You” – Shruti Chauhan’s Heartfelt Message to Ahaan Panday After Saiyaara’s Blockbuster Debut Sparks Romance Buzz
The red-hot spotlight isn’t just on the big screens—it’s glowing on Bollywood’s newest heartthrob, Ahaan Panday, and his rumoured ladylove, Shruti Chauhan. After the thunderous success of Saiyaara, one of the biggest surprise hits of 2025, the internet is in a frenzy—not just over Ahaan’s breakthrough performance, but also over Shruti’s public declaration of love.
Yes, you read that right.
In a bold and emotionally charged gesture, Shruti Chauhan took to her Instagram stories just hours after the Saiyaara box office numbers rolled in, posting a candid photo of Ahaan with the caption:
“So proud of you ❤️ I love you.”
Saiyaara’s Success: A Star Is Born
Released on July 24, Saiyaara has turned out to be the dark horse of 2025, drawing packed theaters and glowing reviews. Ahaan Panday—cousin of Ananya Panday and nephew of Chunky Panday—finally stepped into the limelight with his raw, emotional, and surprisingly mature performance, opposite debutante Anit Kaur.
Critics have hailed his performance as “restrained yet impactful,” with fans calling him the “next big thing.” The film grossed over ₹11 crore on its opening day alone, making it the biggest debut by a newcomer this year.
“I Love You” – Just a Supportive Friend or Something More?
Shruti Chauhan, a rising fashion influencer and aspiring actress, has been linked to Ahaan Panday for months, though neither of them has publicly confirmed their relationship. However, Shruti’s latest post has thrown subtlety out the window.
In her story:
-
She posted a behind-the-scenes moment from the sets of Saiyaara, showing Ahaan mid-laugh.
-
She wrote: “You’ve worked so hard for this moment. You deserve every bit of it. I love you ❤️ #ProudForever”
Within minutes, fan pages picked up the story.
Some reactions online included:
“Wait—did Shruti just make it official?”
“Power couple loading… ”
“They’re so cute together. This is straight out of a movie!”
Rumours of Romance: What We Know So Far
While the two have never officially confirmed dating, Ahaan and Shruti have often been spotted together at Bollywood parties, dinner dates, and industry screenings. They’ve also shared subtle hints on social media—from cryptic comments to matching holiday pictures in the Maldives.
Industry insiders suggest:
“They’ve been close for nearly two years now. Shruti’s always been Ahaan’s biggest cheerleader. If he’s stepping into the industry, she’s the calm in the chaos.”
Ahaan Responds
While Ahaan hasn’t replied directly to Shruti’s post, he did repost several messages from friends and fans on his stories, and one in particular stood out—a repost of Shruti’s “I love you” story with just a red heart emoji.
Fans were quick to interpret it as a silent confirmation of their love.
The Power of Public Love in Gen-Z Bollywood
Shruti’s gesture is part of a new wave of young Bollywood personalities who aren’t afraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves. Gone are the days of hush-hush romances. Today’s Gen-Z stars are bold, expressive, and not afraid to let the world see their vulnerable side.
And with Saiyaara marking a major milestone in Ahaan’s career, this public moment between the two feels both personal and poetic.
What’s Next for Ahaan & Shruti?
While Ahaan is being flooded with film offers post-Saiyaara, sources say he’s also looking at OTT thrillers and a biopic project. Shruti, on the other hand, is said to be in talks for her first acting gig under a major digital banner.
Whether love blossoms publicly or continues in quiet moments, one thing’s for sure:
Bollywood’s newest golden boy has found his moment—and possibly, his muse.
