What Did Aneet Padda Do Before ‘Saiyaara’? Her Journey Before The Big Break..

Aneet Padda might be basking in the spotlight now with the success of Saiyaara, but her journey started much earlier with smaller yet memorable roles. While she’s winning hearts as the lead opposite Ahaan Panday in Mohit Suri’s romantic drama, those who’ve been following her for a while know this isn’t her first time in front of the camera.

She first got noticed through a bunch of popular TV ads that aired around 2022. Now, as fans look back at her journey, those old ads are popping up again online.

She featured in commercials for well known brands like Dairy Milk Silk, Paytm, and Nescafe. In one, she’s seen making coffee; in another, enjoying a chocolate bar during music class.

Apart from acting, Aneet is also passionate about singing. She released her first song, Masoom, in 2024. That same year, she appeared in a supporting role in the TV show Yuva: Sapno Ka Safar, where she was credited as Aneet Kaur.
