For the unversed, there are several online portals which allow people to ‘purchase’ a star and name it after a loved one for a fee.
After being made aware of this special gift from fans, Ahaan and Aneet were deeply moved.
Reacting to the sweet gesture, Ahaan said, “The real star is you. Thank you for shining so brightly. I remember the day Saiyaara left theatres, everything had happened, and I hadn’t let any of it sink in. Seeing this now feels like the film found its place in the universe, somewhere in the galaxy where beautiful things go after they leave. My words don’t quite hold what I feel, because what I feel is too beautiful to be put into words, but this is magical beyond measure, thank you truly.”
Aneet added, “Sometimes I think the film ended. Then you do something like this and I realise stories don’t end, they just find new skies :heart pulse: one star may be named Saiyaara, but the real galaxy has always been you all. Thank you for making our story feel infinite.”
Directed by Mohit Suri, ‘Saiyaara’ created history by earning over ₹570 crore worldwide.
