Saiyaara

Mohit Suri’s Saiyaara has the entire country, especially Gen Z, rushing to theatres to fall in love with Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda’s heart-wrenching love story.

The craze, the college crowds flocking to theatres, and box office records being shattered - all are echoing one thing loud and clear - Bollywood romance is back and it's here to stay. Hailed as the Aashiqui 2  or The Notebook for Gen Z, YRF's Saiyaara is not just a success, it’s a phenomenon. And with it, not one but two stars are born - Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, whose work has shaked the industry and taken the country by storm. The film also marks the triumphant return of Mohit Suri's signature filmmaking style where Ek Villain once shone.

Saiyaara a story about love that’s sacrificial, selfless, and all-consuming but in a way that lifts you up instead of tearing you down. It makes you selfish, yes, but only for someone else. It’s about finding that one person who feels like home, even in a crowd. Yes, it breaks your heart into a million pieces but it also knows how to heal you. As the music traces Krish Kapoor and Vaani Batra's journey from those first glances to devastating longing, Saiyaara becomes more than a film, it becomes a feeling. The aching or a beautiful yearning to just feel - the very thing we've been missing in Bollywood for far too long. And the Janta is saying this out loud as they’re returning for second, third, even fourth watches of the film, unable to stop talking about how this is exactly what they’ve craved from Bollywood - no big stars, no recycled stories, just some soulful original music, a moving story, and the reminder that a man in love can be a tender, beautiful thing, not a violent battle cry.
