No official contract figures have been disclosed. Published estimates conflict: India Today reported that the two leads were paid ₹15–20 lakh each, while another report cited a much higher general range for debuting actors at major banners—not confirmed Saiyaara salaries.
What the reports say about the Saiyaara cast fees
The figures below are media estimates, not verified payroll amounts. Yash Raj Films (YRF), the actors and Suri have not publicly confirmed the fee figures in the cited coverage.
| Person or estimate | Reported amount | What the report establishes |
|---|---|---|
| Ahaan Panday | ₹15–20 lakh | India Today reported this as the fee for each lead actor, citing unnamed sources. It is a film-specific estimate, not an officially confirmed contract figure. India Today, August 4, 2025 |
| Aneet Padda | ₹15–20 lakh | The same India Today report said each lead received this amount; the actors and YRF did not confirm it publicly in the cited coverage. India Today, August 4, 2025 |
| New talent at major banners | ₹3–5 crore | Financial Express relayed this as a general industry range for debuting talent, not as either actor’s established Saiyaara fee. It also suggested Panday might be paid somewhat more than Padda without establishing individual amounts. Financial Express, July 19, 2025 |
| Mohit Suri | ₹6–8 crore | The Times of India and Financial Express reported this director-fee estimate; neither cited an official confirmation or contract. The Times of India, July 29, 2025; Financial Express, July 19, 2025 |
Why the reported actor figures do not match
The ₹15–20 lakh figure is a specific claim about the two actors’ Saiyaara fees, attributed by India Today to unnamed sources. The ₹3–5 crore figure is a broad estimate of what major banners may pay debuting talent; Financial Express explicitly said YRF had not confirmed the actors’ fees. These numbers describe different kinds of claims and should not be combined into a single range or treated as competing verified contract disclosures.
The Times of India also characterized the fee figures it discussed as speculative, not official. The most defensible answer is therefore that the exact amounts remain undisclosed; the published figures show what outlets estimated, not what can be established as fact.
What is known about the film and its later reunion
YRF lists Saiyaara as a love story set in Mumbai, directed by Mohit Suri, with Aneet Padda as writer Vaani Batra and Ahaan Panday as musician Krish Kapoor. The studio gives the film’s release date as July 18, 2025. Yash Raj Films’ film page
In an August 2025 report, India Today said discussions for the leads’ next film involved a proposed ₹35–50 lakh range. That, too, was attributed to unnamed sources and concerns reported negotiations—not confirmed pay for Saiyaara. In April 2026, YRF announced that Suri, producer Akshaye Widhani, Panday and Padda would reunite for an untitled film, but disclosed no remuneration terms. India Today; YRF, April 15, 2026
