After the trailer and songs of Saiyaara generated buzz among the youngsters, the film, starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, released in theatres on Friday, and the two have been welcomed with open arms. The unprecedented buzz around the movie is now translating into positive reviews, and netizens have already labelled it a "blockbuster".
Directed by Mohit Suri, Saiyaara is a tale of love, heartbreak and pain, and it seems to have reminded the audience of Aditya Roy Kapur and Shraddha Kapoor's Aashiqui 2, which was also helmed by Suri.
