Mohit Suri’s much-anticipated romantic drama Saiyaara dropped its trailer today, offering audiences a glimpse into a love story that promises to be as intense as it is tender. Featuring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the trailer introduces viewers to a modern romance that spans passion, heartbreak, and emotional healing — a hallmark of Suri’s signature storytelling style.
Produced by Yash Raj Films (YRF), Saiyaara is slated for a theatrical release on July 19, 2025, and is already making waves in the industry as one of the biggest romantic releases of the year.
🎬 Saiyaara: A Story of Love and Its Shadows
In the trailer, Ahaan Panday plays Krish Kapoor, an aspiring singer trying to make his mark in the music world. He meets Aneet Padda’s character, a gifted songwriter, and together they craft both music and memories. Their chemistry is palpable as the two explore the highs of first love.
But the trailer soon pivots to darker undertones when Aneet’s character brandishes a knife at Krish, demanding he leave an event, signaling the unraveling of their relationship. We see Krish grappling with betrayal, anger, and heartbreak, while his father, played by veteran actor Varun Badola, imparts some sage advice:
“Apne pyaar ke liye na khud ko khatam mat kar lena (Don’t end your life for your love).”
A flash of Aneet’s character dressed as a bride further deepens the mystery — suggesting that love, in this story, is anything but simple.
