Mohit Suri’s Saiyaara, which marks the Bollywood debut of Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is just hours away from hitting theatres and the first review is already creating waves. Singer Palak Muchhal, who attended a special screening of the film, has called it “pure magic” and praised the debutants for their raw and real performances.
Sharing her reaction on social media, Palak wrote, “Watched Saiyaara last night… and I’m still carrying its emotions in my heart. It’s been a while since a film moved me so deeply — Saiyaara is not just a love story, it’s a journey of emotion, pain, healing, and timeless connection. A story that truly needed to be told, and told the way it has been.”
She continued, “So proud of @mohitsuri — having worked with him, I’ve seen his passion up close, but what he’s created here goes beyond passion… it’s pure magic. The storytelling, the screenplay, the way every moment unfolds — it lingers long after the credits roll. And the music… Every note elevates the narrative. A special place in my heart for Dhan, by @mithoon11, which is such a soul-stirring part of the film’s heart.”
Palak also praised the lead pair, calling them “hands down the most brilliant debutantes I’ve ever seen. So raw, so real, so powerful.”
Saiyaara is a romantic musical drama backed by Yash Raj Films. The story follows two passionate lovers navigating euphoric highs and crushing lows as they fight to hold on to their tumultuous bond. It promises classic Mohit Suri elements, intense love, heartbreak, and a stirring musical score.
The film’s music has already struck a chord with fans, featuring compositions by Mithoon, Faheem Abdullah, Vishal Mishra, Sachet–Parampara, Arslan Nizami, and Tanishk Bagchi.
Trade analysts are predicting a sensational start for the film at the box office. Saiyaara has already raked in over Rs 2.6 crore in advance bookings, with more than 12 hours left for pre-sales to close. Industry experts estimate a double-digit opening in the range of Rs 10-12 crore, with optimistic projections touching Rs 15-20 crore. These figures are massive for a film led by debutants, surpassing even Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par, which opened to Rs 11.50 crore just a month ago.
