Actors Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda have been receiving loads of love and praise for their debut film Saiyaara. A major reason behind this is their ability to skillfully emote onscreen even in the most intense scenes, like seasoned performers, as well as their very convincing onscreen chemistry. Ahaan has already become a national crush with his rockstar attitude whereas Aneet’s simplicity has won millions of hearts. A particular scene which left several viewers with butterflies in their stomach was when Aneet sat on Ahaan’s bike and the latter threw his overshirt around her, tying her to himself. Well, netizens have now dug out an old clip, claiming that Arjun Kapoor did this action before it became a trend thanks to Saiyaara.

In Saiyaara, Ahaan Panday left audiences roaring in delight when he threw his shirt behind Aneet Padda, pulling her close as he tied her to himself before zooming off on the bike. In a scene from the 2015 film Tevar, which is now doing the rounds on social media, Arjun Kapoor did something similar. Arjun threw a scarf around his co-star Sonakshi Sinha as she sat behind him on a bike, and tied it around their waist pulling her close. Arjun then took Sonakshi’s hand and gently placed it on him to keep her from falling. While the action in both these scenes are quite similar, the vibes are very different. Both endearing, nonetheless.

Some netizens were also reminded of the way Aamir Khan drove Raju aka Sharman Joshi's onscreen father to the hospital in 3 Idiots (2009) on a scooty. Sharing a picture of the same, an internet user wrote, “OG trend setter for a purpose.”
