The romantic drama film Saiyaara, starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda in their debut lead roles in Bollywood, was released in cinemas yesterday, July 18. Since its release, it has been the center of attention on social media, with the biggest question being whether the film will also be released on an OTT platform.
Saiyaara has been directed by Mohit Suri, and its emotional storyline, captivating music, and stunning visuals had already garnered attention even before its release. The film revolves around the characters Vani and Krish, who fall deeply in love with each other.
Mohit Suri’s magic is evident throughout the film, with several songs that deeply resonate with audiences. The film has had a strong box office opening, which is being regarded as an exceptional achievement for debut actors.

It is expected that Saiyaara will be available on Netflix by late September or early October. However, the final decision will depend on negotiations between Netflix and the filmmakers. Yash Raj Films has confirmed that Saiyaara will indeed be streamed on Netflix. The film’s success is being attributed to the fresh lead pairing and the music.
