A potent Mohit Suri cocktail of feverish love, mesmerizing music and two debutant actors who can actually act!

...the freshness of this jodi is weighed under by Suri’s familiar treatment which feels dated, the same old teary sequences laden by emo lyrics: what starts as passionate soon becomes cloying.

While sometimes sweet and sometimes entertaining with its musical performances, the movie is also often offensive with some of its stereotypes and assumptions. Neither character is particularly interesting or dynamic.

With Saiyaara, Mohit Suri captures the feeling of sinking in love through the musicality of a heartbreak, and it has been a while since a Hindi film let itself fall.
