Aneet Padda and Ahaan Panday have kept speculation about their rumoured relationship at bay, but a recent family gathering has given fans another glimpse of their off-screen equation. Aneet attended the baby shower for Ahaan’s sister, Alanna Panday, in Mumbai on October 8, where she was seen playing a game with the Panday family.

A video from the celebration shows Aneet teaming up with actor Ananya Panday for a baby-themed game. The two held a cloth to pass a doll between teams but struggled to keep the game going and accidentally dropped it. Ahaan was also spotted in the background as the family’s younger members joined the fun.
Alanna, who is expecting her second child with husband Ivor McCray, celebrated the occasion at her parents’ residence in Mumbai. Aneet was seen arriving at the gathering on Thursday evening, alongside other guests from the family’s circle.
Her presence at the intimate celebration caught the attention of fans, particularly amid ongoing speculation about her equation with Ahaan. The actors have rarely been seen together publicly since rumours about their relationship began circulating around the release of their film Saiyaara.
The pair have maintained that they are friends, while keeping details of their personal lives private. The latest video, however, offered a candid look at Aneet interacting with Ahaan’s family, with her playful partnership with Ananya becoming a talking point online.

Social media users were quick to comment on the clip, with several focusing on Ahaan watching the game in the background. One fan wrote, “Aneet and Ananya two cutey in one frame.”
Another commented on the actors’ apparent comfort around each other, writing, “What do you mean we got to witness Aneet Ananya bonding and Ahaan downbad panday smiling ear to ear at the back!” One more fan described the moment as “so domestic”.
Some viewers also interpreted Aneet’s attendance at the family event as a sign of how close she has become to the Pandays. However, neither actor has publicly confirmed the dating rumours.
Aneet and Ahaan made their on-screen pairing debut with Mohit Suri’s Saiyaara, which became a major box-office success. Aneet had previously appeared in a cameo in Salaam Venky, while the film marked Ahaan’s acting debut.
The actors are set to reunite for an untitled romantic film directed by Suri. Aneet is also attached to the horror-comedy Shakti Shalini, scheduled for release in March 2027, while Ahaan is working on an action film directed by Ali Abbas Zafar.
