Box office experts had cautioned that romantic dramas had to earn through storytelling rather than spectacle. Saiyaara seems to be doing just that it’s earning not because of visual bombast but due to palpable emotions, chemistry, and earnest performances. And that’s a refreshing sign in an industry dominated by larger-than-life franchises.
guess what? this movie has not only rocked my world 😭 I’m so happy for these debutants they truly deserve every bit of it! #Saiyaara is a blockbuster pic.twitter.com/xHLpP7NezB

If Saiyaara can maintain strong weekday attendance and expand into newer territories, this could be the start of a breakout run. Ahaan and Aneet may well be the new names on viewers’ lips entering the next wave of romantic cinema.
