One viral Hindi post read:

Another tweet added:
"China ka youth world-class infrastructure bana rahe hai. America ka youth AI jaisa future-ready tech develop kar raha hai. Aur India ke youth Saiyaara dekhkar theatre me ro rahe hai."
Mixed public mood
Not all reactions have been critical or sarcastic. Some users defended the film, praising its emotional core and performances. However, the volume and variety of memes continue to dominate the online narrative.
One user summed up the confusion:
"Saiyaara dekhne gayi thi lekin theatre jaake bhul gayi konsi movie dekhni thi."
Another wrote:
"We need vaccine for Saiyaara."
Social commentary in disguise
While the memes are entertaining, they also reflect deeper concerns among young Indians around aspiration, productivity, and cultural priorities. For now, Saiyaara remains at the centre of internet humour, even as it holds strong at the box office.
Whether this moment passes as a joke or leads to more reflection, one thing is clear — Saiyaara is more than just a film; it's become a meme-worthy moment for the digital generation.

New Delhi: As Saiyaara continues to wreak havoc at the box office and the film fraternity showers love on the film, director and the debutants, Mohit Suri, too, has put up an appreciation post. But this time, it is for a filmmaker he deeply admires - Sandeep Reddy Vanga. Mohit Suri shared an Instagram post thanking Sandeep Reddy Vanga for being the "first one to openly support and express generous belief in Saiyaara". What's Happening Mohit Suri took to Instagram to thank Sandeep Reddy Vanga for his faith in Saiyaara. Sharing a picture of Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Mohit Suri wrote, "Sandeep, @imvangasandeep, thank you for being the first one to openly support and express your generous belief in Saiyaara. It meant the world coming from a filmmaker whose craft I deeply admire." Furthermore, he added, "I've always respected the raw emotion, fearlessness and intensity you bring to your stories. It reminds me why we do what we do to move people, to connect. Grateful to walk this path alongside storytellers like you. Here's to more powerful cinema and always a fan!" View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mohit D Suri (@mohitsuri) Mohit Suri's Reaction To Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Films Earlier, Mohit Suri, who is known for his films in the romance genre, had reacted to the criticism that Sandeep Reddy Vanga's films face. Mohit Suri told Filmygyan, "I love his films. Hum banate hai use controversial (We make his films controversial). Ye same kahaani aap kisi gangster ke sath karo - Bhatt sahab ne kiya hai Sadak mein. (You make Sandeep kind of films with a gangster, Mahesh Bhatt has made Sadak like that). We are from that school of cinema. Ram Gopal Varma has made such films too. Everyone has the right to make their films. You have a right to like it or not like it." Defending creative freedom in Vanga's films, Mohit Suri added, "Very few people think Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh have no difference. I feel there is a big difference between the two films. There is more emotion in the second part. I loved Animal. I messaged him during Animal that I am a Sandeep Reddy Vanga fan." In A Nutshell Mohit Suri, who is currently basking in the humongous success of Saiyaara, took to social media to express his gratitude towards Sandeep Reddy Vanga for his support. He thanked him and also reiterated that he will always be a Sandeep Reddy Vanga fan.
