‘Saiyaara' Movie Review and Release Live Updates: Mohit Suri's film starring Ahaan Panday and Avneet Padda to witness a strong opening

The stage is set for Mohit Suri's much-anticipated film 'Saiyaara' to finally hit theatres. Touted as one of the most talked-about releases of the year, the film is just hours away from its grand debut, and the buzz is palpable. What makes *Saiyaara* especially exciting is its refreshing cast and emotionally rich narrative, which promises to make the film more than just another launch—it aims to be a lasting cinematic impression. 'Saiyaara' marks the Bollywood debut of Ahaan Panday, cousin of Ananya Panday. Ever since the project was announced, Ahaan has been in the spotlight, and early reactions suggest he brings charm and individuality to the screen. He is joined by Aneet Padda, another fresh face, and their onscreen chemistry has already created a stir through the film's trailer and songs. While the storyline has been kept mostly under wraps, 'Saiyaara' is expected to offer a poignant journey of love, heartbreak, and redemption. The narrative appears to follow a coming-of-age arc with emotional depth—hallmarks of Mohit Suri's signature style. The film's music is already a hit, especially the title track, which has quickly climbed the streaming charts. With a blend of soulful melodies and fresh sounds, the soundtrack has played a key role in building anticipation. Advance bookings have been strong, with 90,000 tickets already sold in national chains. With limited screens and huge buzz, 'Saiyaara' is expected to make a solid box office debut. 07:39 (IST) Jul 18 Ananya Panday pens an emotional note for cousin Ahaan Panday with childhood memories ahead of 'Saiyaara' release - "been obsessed with my brother since day 1 and I can't wait for the world to feel the same ????????????????♥️♥️????" View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ananya 🌙 (@ananyapanday) 07:21 (IST) Jul 18 Did you know 'Saiyaara's idea was originally 'Aashiqui 3'? Mohit Suri, in an interview with a portal, disclosed that Saiyaara was initially intended to be Aashiqui 3. He mentioned that Bhushan Kumar and Mukesh Bhatt had asked him to draft the project, he told Pinkvilla. However, due to their inconsistent relationship and a hurried announcement plan, he decided to reconstruct the idea on his own. Ultimately, this concept transformed into Saiyaara, Suri also noted that it was filmmaker Luv Ranjan who motivated him to pursue writing Saiyaara. He credited Luv for guiding him towards creating a love story and mentioned that his inspiration grew after watching The Romantics, which evoked memories of the emotional richness found in 80s cinema. He observed a decline in the success of action films, which further encouraged him to delve into a romantic storyline, eventually developing it into a complete screenplay. Additionally, Mohit Suri revealed that Aashiqui 2 was originally meant to be a standalone love story rather than a sequel. Following Murder 2, he was eager to depict romance on screen but encountered rejections—even from Emraan Hashmi—due to the industry's hesitance towards love stories produced by Vishesh Films. Bhushan Kumar later suggested transforming the script into Aashiqui 2, with Mukesh Bhatt proposing a larger budget and the iconic title. Mohit agreed, and the rest became history. 07:18 (IST) Jul 18 'Saiyaara': 'Animal' fame Sandeep Reddy Wanga's words of praise for the Mohit Suri film Sandeep Reddy Wanga, who is famous for films like 'Kabir Singh and 'Animal' shared his thoughts on Mohit Suri's latest film 'Saiyaara.'
