About Saiyaara

Saiyaara revolves around the intense love story that blossoms between an aspiring musician named Krish Kapoor (Ahaan) and a shy writer Vaani Batra (Aneet), which takes a shocking turn as the story progresses. The film received praise for the fresh casting, gorgeous music, and the performance of its two leads. It marks the acting debut of Ahaan Panday. Aneet was previously seen in Big Girls Don't Cry and Slaam Venky.

Taran Adarsh tweeted about the film's incredible performance and said that it is ‘rewriting the record books’. He also pointed out, “For many, star power became the be-all and end-all – and the neglect in writing and music was clearly visible. A young love story, driven by great music and heartfelt emotions, will always find its audience. I’m thrilled that #Saiyaara has struck gold... What’s even more heartening is that #YRF has backed this gem... #YRF, a banner synonymous with love stories, now has another massive blockbuster in its catalogue – a love story, once again... But this time, it stars two rank newcomers and is helmed by the supremely talented Mohit Suri.”
