After attaining resounding success at the box office, Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer Saiyaara now has an OTT release date. The Mohit Suri directorial will land on Netflix on September 12.

The romantic film from the house of Yash Raj has become one of the greatest hits of the year. It marked the acting debut of Ahaan and the theatrical debut of Aneet and has catapulted them into stardom. After the release, social media was filled with videos of young cinemagoers breaking down after watching the film, contributing to its cultural impact.

Saiyaara has also become the biggest hit for its director Mohit Suri and has helped revive his career post the failure of Malang (2020) and Ek Villain Returns (2022).

The film released in theatres on July 18 and since then has crossed Rs 300 crore domestically and over Rs 500 crore worldwide. It also received mostly favourable responses from critics. Our review of the film read: “For a millennial Hindi cinemagoer like me, Saiyaara too feels like a time machine. It took me back to earphone-on metro rides, brooding songs from Kalyug (2005) or Awarapan (2007) giving unnecessary weightage to a school breakup. Or a class bunk to watch Aashiqui 2 (2013) with a crush and then regretting the decision after witnessing the climax (it doesn’t end swell). Saiyaara made me relive old memories but I am not sure if it created any new ones. It isn’t a new, catchy track but actually a reprise. A throwback. A compilation of Mohit Suri’s greatest hits.”
