Saiyaara Movie Storyline
The film tells the story of Krish Kapoor (Ahaan Panday), an aspiring singer, and Vaani (Aneet Padda), a budding songwriter, who fall in love while working together professionally. According to a media report, Suri explained his casting choice: "I wouldn't have made Saiyaara if I hadn't found formidable actors like Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda."

From Aashiqui 3 to Saiyaara
In an interesting revelation, Suri disclosed that ‘Saiyaara’ was originally conceived as ‘Aashiqui 3.’ However, due to creative differences and timeline issues, he decided to develop the concept independently, ultimately transforming it into ‘Saiyaara.’
The director credited filmmaker Luv Ranjan for motivating him to pursue the project, noting that his inspiration grew after watching ‘The Romantics,’ which reminded him of the emotional richness found in 1980s cinema.

The film, produced by YRF and marking Suri's first collaboration with the production house, appears to have struck the right balance between fresh faces and proven storytelling expertise. With such positive initial reactions, ‘Saiyaara’ seems poised to establish both Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda as promising newcomers in Bollywood while reaffirming Mohit Suri's mastery of the romantic drama genre.
