The
two
leads
are
looking
confident
in
the
trailer,
but
whether
their
chemistry
will
translate
into
a
convincing
love
saga
is
something
that
remains
to
be
seen,
notes
Mayur
Sanap.
Years
ago,
Imtiaz
Ali’s
Rockstar
brought
us
the
hypothesis
that
people
who
have
endured
heartache
can
reach
their
creative
best.
“Dil
toota
hai
kabhi
tumhara?”
Kumud
Mishra’s
father
figure
asks
Ranbir
Kapoor,
who
then
transforms
into
an
edgy
artist.
Saiyaara,
the
new
romantic
musical
from
the
YRF
stable,
seems
to
be
a
manifestation
of
the
same
idea
with
its
high-on-passion
romance
theme.
Aashiqui
2
and
Ek
Villain
helmer
Mohit
Suri
whips
up
the
musical
tale
of
love
and
heartbreak,
which
stars
Ananya
Panday’s
cousin
Ahaan
Panday
in
his
on
screen
debut
and
Aneet
Padda,
who
registered
her
spunky
presence
in
Prime
Video
series
Big
Girls
Don’t
Cry.
Ahaan
plays
an
eccentric
songster,
looking
to
make
it
big
in
the
music
industry.
Aneet
is
a
meek
songwriter
who
works
with
Ahaan.
Sparks
fly
and
they
fall
in
love
despite
their
contrasting
personalities.
An
ugly
breakup
follows
that
pushes
them
on
their
separate
ways.
Ahaan
becomes
a
celebrated
musician,
whose
heartache
might
be
the
inspiration
behind
his
music.
The
music
seems
to
fit
well
into
the
plot
of
Saiyaara,
which
takes
the
inspiration
for
its
title
from
Ek
Tha
Tiger‘s
rueful
ballad
featuring
Salman
Khan
and
Katrina
Kaif.
Be
it
the
excitement
of
young
love
or
Ahaan’s
emotional
upheaval
in
the
film’s
already
chartbuster
title
track,
the
music
of
Saiyaara
is
among
the
better
albums
on
the
music
charts
as
expected
from
a
Mohit
Suri
film.
The
two
leads
are
looking
confident
in
the
trailer,
but
whether
their
chemistry
will
translate
into
a
convincing
love
saga
is
something
that
remains
to
be
seen.
Saiyaara
is
set
for
theatrical
release
on
July
18.
