Another film launches new faces in Bollywood, and once again, it feels like déjà vu.
This time, it’s from director Mohit Suri—once known for delivering emotional hits that ran solely on the power of their music. But with his latest release, even that magic is missing.

Mohit Suri, once hailed for his unforgettable music-driven hits, seems to have lost his magic touch with his latest film Saiyaara.
Fans are calling the songs “mid,” a surprising letdown from a director known for emotional soundtracks.

Featuring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the film relies heavily on scenic visuals and dreamy side profiles—avoiding full-frontal shots that reveal true acting ability.
Saiyaara is struggling to create the impact expected from a Mohit Suri film.

The storyline follows a formula we’ve seen far too often. A rebel boy. A girl with emotional trauma. A love story unfolding in picture-perfect locations. It’s predictable, safe, and uninspired.
What truly disappoints is the music. Mohit Suri’s films are known for chartbusters that carry the entire narrative—songs that often made his films successful even when the stories were weak. But this time, the soundtrack falls flat.
The songs feel random and forgettable, which is surprising from a director whose music usually becomes the soul of the film.
Visually, the film tries hard to impress. The lead actors are styled in a way that seems heavily inspired by Malang. The clothes, the mood, the tone—it all feels recycled.
And then there’s the camera work. A strange pattern has become common in star kid debuts—directors avoid full-face shots.
Most scenes focus on their side profiles, distant silhouettes, and scenic backdrops. It feels intentional, as if the film is designed to hide their inexperience rather than showcase their talent.
Bollywood needs to stop playing it safe with these launches. Audiences today are sharp—they want originality, authenticity, and substance. Glossy visuals and familiar tropes aren’t enough anymore.
Without compelling stories or memorable music, even the most beautifully shot films can feel empty.
