Others Who Praised The Film

Ahaan’s sister Alanna Panday expressed her pride by saying, “Watching you on the big screen in your very first film was overwhelming…the world saw a star in the making but all I could see was my little brother.”

Filmmaker Anurag Basu was moved by Mohit Suri’s direction. He said, “I legit cried like a heartbroken teenager,” and called Saiyaara Suri’s best work yet. Director Sanjay Gupta also lauded YRF’s unique marketing strategy. He wrote on X that avoiding pre-release interviews was “genius” and kept the film’s freshness intact.

So whoever took the decision at YRF to keep the lead pair of Saiyaara away from all the pre release interviews, appearances and pod casts is a genius.
They kept alive the freshness exclusively for the big screen.
And look at how it’s worked.

Rasha Thadani also penned an emotional message for Ahaan and Aneet, calling them “born to shine” and “pure magic on screen.” Superstar Salman Khan also praised the duo before release by sharing an advance booking poster. He wrote, “It is so nice to see the love the two debutants are getting from the industry and the country... So happy for them and their parents who I have known since we were kids.”

For the unversed, Saiyaara is all set to cross Rs 50-60 cr mark today (Sunday) with big opening weekend record.
