Ahaan Panday’s Mother Shares Alarming Fan Incident: A Letter Written in Blood

Mumbai: Actor Ahaan Panday, who became a breakout star in 2025 with the blockbuster success of Saiyaara, is experiencing the extreme highs and lows of modern-day stardom. In a recent interview with The Nod, his mother, Deanne Panday, revealed a disturbing incident where a fan sent the actor a letter written in their own blood.

“That’s Not What He Would Want”

Deanne expressed that while the family is deeply moved by the outpouring of love—ranging from toddlers dancing to his songs to octogenarians sending emotional letters—some gestures have crossed a dangerous line.

The Incident: A few months ago, the family received a letter written in blood.
The Response: “We wrote back asking them not to do such things,” Deanne shared. She emphasized that such self-harm is distressing for Ahaan and his family, stating, “It’s harmful. That’s not what he would ever want for them.”

The Saiyaara Phenomenon

Ahaan’s debut film Saiyaara, directed by Mohit Suri, has been a cultural and commercial juggernaut in 2025:

Box Office: The film has officially crossed the ₹500 crore mark worldwide, making it one of the highest-grossing Indian films of the year.
The Duo: The chemistry between Ahaan and co-star Aneet Padda has made them the most talked-about “Gen Z” onscreen pair.
Cultural Impact: Deanne noted that Ahaan is now mobbed daily and paparazzi have become a permanent fixture outside their Union Park home.

Ahaan is currently undergoing intense physical transformation for his next major project under the Yash Raj Films (YRF) banner.
