The Magic of Music, Chemistry & Mohit Suri’s Touch
So, what’s got audiences rushing to the theatres? A lot of the buzz is around the hauntingly beautiful music, which has already found its way into playlists everywhere. Add to that the terrific on-screen chemistry between Ahaan and Aneet, two debutants who clearly have screen presence and promise, and you’ve got a film that strikes the right emotional chords.
Mohit Suri, known for his trademark romantic tragedies (Aashiqui 2, Ek Villain), brings his flair for soulful storytelling back to the screen. Backed by Yash Raj Films, Saiyaara feels like the kind of old-school Bollywood heartbreak saga that still manages to hit hard.
Saiyaara Storyline:
After being jilted by her lover, Vaani Batra (Aneet Padda) decides to focus on her writing career. She crosses paths with the hot-headed musician Krish Kapoor (Ahaan Panday). Sparks fly as the two enter into a creative collab for a song.
Now, Krish has spent his entire life trying to escape poverty and the shadow of his alcoholic father. Music is his way out, and he’s almost at the edge of success when life throws a curveball. Will young love persevere or is this Saiyaara doomed to wander?
