Saiyaara, a copy of this Korean Film? Viewers say, 'from story to climax, it's all same...'
Packed theatres, viral emotional reactions, and teary-eyed audiences prove the film's impact is real. The story has touched people deeply, and social media is overflowing with posts from fans sharing how the film moved them to tears. T he film has already grossed nearly Rs 100 crore in just three days. Is Saiyaara a copy of a Korean classic?
As Saiyaara continues to trend, a section of the internet is calling it out for allegedly copying the 2004 South Korean film A Moment to Remember , directed by John H. Lee. The claims suggest that the plotlines, emotional beats, and even the ending are too similar to ignore.
One social media user wrote, 'Saiyaara is a copy of a Korean film. Mohit Suri rarely makes original movies.' Another added, 'So many scenes and the ending are almost the same in both films.'
A third commented, 'Mohit Suri and his obsession with Korean films. Even Ek Villain was inspired by I Saw The Devil.'
Despite the growing discussion, director Mohit Suri has yet to respond to these allegations.

Got threat call in Punjabi after attack, says singer and rapper Fazilpuria
Gurgaon: Seven days after a bullet was allegedly fired at the car of singer and rapper (Fazilpuria) in Sector 71 on Southern Peripheral Road (SPR), he revealed he had received a threatening phone call in Punjabi "on the same evening". Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Speaking to the media on Monday, Fazilpuria dismissed theories he had orchestrated the attack to have his security reinstated. The singer also dismissed an alleged claim of a loan amounting to Rs 5 crore — mentioned in a post by a gangster after the attack — and questioned its authenticity. Sharing details of the incident, the singer said he had left his office in Fazilpur for his home when a car approached from the rear. "Two men sitting behind were looking at me. I mistook them as fans. The men in that car intercepted my vehicle, following which I stopped near a divider. Two men stepped outside the car and I still thought that those were my fans and wanted to meet me. I was shocked to see one of them holding a weapon, following which I reversed my car and escaped while they fired at me," Fazilpuria said, adding he was alone on July 14 while heading home. Regarding threats, the singer said after he protested against the gangsters responsible for the killing of Punjabi singer , he received multiple threats and subsequently received security from the Haryana police. "My security was withdrawn 20 days prior to the attack on me. After the security was withdrawn, I requested the Gurgaon commissioner for a review. He said my plea was under consideration. After the attack on me, I was even under police scanner as there was a theory that I might have staged it, which is not the case at all. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now I received a threat call in Punjabi and some other gang took responsibility on the same evening. I want the police to do a detailed investigation and nab the accused," the singer added. Following the attack, a viral message emerged in which Sunil Sardhania, an alleged member of the Himanshu Bhau gang, took responsibility for the shooting. The message said the firing was intended to warn the singer to repay Rs 5 crore to one Deepak Nandal within a month to avoid severe consequences. However, Fazilpuria, on Monday, denied the allegations of any such loan or investment, saying that he "never took any loan from Nandal, who was his old friend", and that all music labels had invested in his career. Two days after the attack, a suspect, identified as Vishal —25 year old— of Sonipat, was arrested from his village Jajal. Police are yet to arrest a co-accused.

Saiyaara box office: Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda starrer crushes Sikandar, Raid 2, Sitaare Zameen Par & Housefull 5 to become 2nd fastest entrant to Rs 100 crore club
Looking at the current trend, Saiyaara has all the potential to enter the Rs 200 crore club, with no major releases scheduled for the coming weekend, except for the Marvel biggie, The Fantastic Four: First Steps read more Ahaan Panday & Aneet Padda starrer Saiyaara is performing way beyond its expectations at the box office. The Mohit Suri directorial, which enjoyed a phenomenal opening weekend, entered the Rs 100 crore club on its fourth day and emerged as the second-fastest film of 2025 to achieve this milestone, after Vicky Kaushal's Chhaava, surpassing biggies like Sitaare Zameen Par, Raid 2, Housefull 5, Sky Force, and Sikandar. Fastest entrant club to Rs 100 crore club STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Chhaava - 3 days Saiyaara - 4 days Sky Force - 8 days Sitaare Zameen Par - 9 days Raid 2 - 9 days Housefull 5 - 10 days Sikandar - 11 days Looking at the current trend, _Saiyaara_ has all the potential to enter the Rs 200 crore club, with no major releases scheduled for the coming weekend, except for the Marvel biggie, The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Despite not going all out with the promotions, Saiyaara garnered unprecedented excitement among the cinegoers. Before the release of the movie, director Mohit Suri spoke about it and told Firstpost, 'I've been inside the studio for the last one month. I have no idea. And unlike the past when people travel from one studio to another, this is everything inhouse at YRF. So I haven't really gone out and met the world outside. Normally, when you are working on other films, you go out for the day; for sound, edit, and VFX. It was different different places. And just hearing it now, it does feel it does feel very redeeming and validating because when I started off this film, I was quite discouraged by a lot of senior people saying that nobody would be interested in a young love story. Because at that time, larger-than-life films were being made and I just thought that my voice would be lost there when everyone was shouting. So I just went and tried to make a film which is very different from what others were doing. And to me, the fact that people are appreciating that the difference that it's standing out means a lot.'
