Saiyaara Review: When director Mohit Suri announced his new romantic drama, Saiyaara, with two fresh faces, hardly anyone would have thought that the film would turn out to be so effective. But believe me, Saiyaara is truly a film that is a heartbeat for the youth, full of deep emotions, and the songs are amazing – a film you should go to the theatres to watch!
One thing about the Hindi film industry is that every generation has got its one memorable romantic film. Every batch that spent a few years after graduation in college got a film that had a cute love story, two fresh faces entering the industry and a lot of beautiful songs. Imagine, one batch got Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia’s ‘Bobby’, another got Salman Khan and Bhagyashree’s ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’. And then came Hrithik Roshan and Ameesha Patel’s ‘Kaho Naa Pyar Hai’. These films became not just films but memories of those generations.
Apart from these iconic films, the young audience also got films like ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na’, ‘Aashiqui 2’, and ‘Ek Villain’. ‘Aashiqui 2’ and ‘Ek Villain’ director Mohit Suri now brings ‘Saiyaara’. Mohit Suri, who has been making musical love stories since the 2000s, said in an interview during the promotion of ‘Saiyaara’ that “no matter how much time people spend online, they will always feel the need to hold someone’s hand.”
His words seem authentic while watching the film. ‘Saiyaara’ is a film that is young at heart, yet serious in its emotions. Its beautiful songs take you to a mood where you feel the need to hold someone’s hand. It is not just a film, but an experience that takes you to the depths of love, friendship and emotions.
