About Saiyaara
Mohit Suri directs the film, which follows the narrative of Krish (Ahaan), an aspiring singer, and Vaani (Aneet), a lyricist who writes for Ahaan’s character.
“Despite their vastly different lifestyles, beliefs, and histories, Vaani and Krish are ideal partners. Will they comprehend the truth, despite their age and problems? The film’s summary reads: “They say flawed, imperfect people make for a perfect love story… and Saiyaara is about celebrating that one love story that is so deep, so pure, and so caring that it is completely unconditional.”

“All this was achieved without exposing the cast or using standard PR and marketing techniques, which means no interviews, no city visits, no reels, no impactful material and no exposure. “Simply the power of strong content marketed to an entire nation,” the statement said.
