'Saiyaara is my homage to the love stories I love': Mohit Suri

Saiyaara brings together YRF and Mohit, both known for creating timeless romances for an intense love story that has been unanimously loved by people.

Saiyaara introduces Ahaan Panday as a quintessential hero and Aneet Padda (of Big Girls Don't Cry fame) as the next YRF heroine.

The gorgeous pair has got incredible love and appreciation for their effortless acting and brilliant chemistry in this romance.

For Mohit Suri, romance is a genre that is extremely close to his heart.

He says, "I feel you can tell so many beautiful stories and take people along so many journeys and celebrate so many emotions but the romantic genre is always special.

"Saiyaara is my homage to the love stories I love and the sweeping romances that I have come across through my life. I have been fortunate to have met so many people who have been kind enough to share their incredible love stories with me."

He adds, "I’m delighted to see this unanimous response to the teaser of Saiyaara. I’m thrilled for Ahaan and Aneet. They deserve all the love because they have really put in everything for people to connect so deeply with the teaser of Saiyaara.

"I share this moment with my incredible team and everyone at YRF. I hope people keep engaging and connecting with Saiyaara as we peel every layer of emotion, every season of love through our marketing campaign."

Saiyaara is set to release on July 18, 2025 in theatres worldwide and is produced by the company’s CEO Akshaye Widhani.

YRF is known to produce incredible romantic films over its rich legacy of 50 years and Akshaye is aware that people had huge expectations from the teaser of Saiyaara.

He says, "Yash Raj Films has a special relationship with romance as a genre and we are exploring a new side of love that is intense yet uplifting through Saiyaara. It is an incredibly important film for us because we realised that people would have a lot of expectations from YRF doing a romantic film after a while."

Akshaye adds, "We were delighted to have found the opportunity to collaborate with someone like Mohit Suri in our pursuit to make a love story that could resonate with not just the youth of our country but also with everyone who wants to watch a love story that they can root for. So, the appreciation we are receiving for Saiyaara is hugely humbling."

He further says, "Saiyaara is also special because Yash Raj Films is introducing two really talented newcomers Ahaan Panday & Aneet Padda as the next YRF hero and heroine and we wanted to launch them with a love story for the ages. We hope people love Saiyaara when it releases in theatres worldwide on July 18."
