MUMBAI: Released on 18th July 2025 under the prestigious Yash Raj Films banner, Saiyaara marks the directorial finesse of Mohit Suri and introduces fresh faces Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda to the silver screen.

A musical romantic drama at its core, the film narrates the intense journey of Krish Kapoor, a gifted yet impulsive musician, and Vaani Batra, a soulful poet-lyricist. Their creative bond soon transforms into a stormy yet deeply moving love story.

The debut duo delivers remarkably mature performances, drawing praise from critics and audiences alike for their undeniable on-screen chemistry and emotional authenticity.

With chart-topping tracks such as Saiyaara, Barbaad, and Dhun, the film’s soundtrack beautifully enhances the narrative rather than simply serving as filler.

Despite a 156-minute runtime that some feel stretches slightly, the film’s emotional richness, sincere performances, and resonant music have earned it widespread acclaim.

Saiyaara opened to an impressive ₹20 crore on its first day, and word-of-mouth has only propelled its soaring popularity, quickly cementing its status as a massive box office hit.

Meanwhile, veteran actress Ameesha Patel recently reacted to comparisons being drawn between Saiyaara and her iconic debut Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai. Speaking to the media, she remarked, “I haven’t watched Saiyaara, so I wouldn’t want to comment directly. But it’s interesting that 25 years later, people are still comparing films to Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai. I wish the newcomers all the very best.”

As audiences continue to pour into theatres, Saiyaara is proving to be not just a successful launchpad for its talented leads but also a nostalgic yet fresh return to the golden era of emotionally rich Bollywood romance.
