Saiyaara OTT release plans changed? Makers of Ahaan Panday, Aneet Padda starrer eye Diwali 2025 post 90-day box office run
Saiyaara to have its OTT premiere on Diwali?
According to a latest report by the Times of India, Saiyaara has found its official streaming partner in Netflix. The makers of the Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer are now eyeing its OTT release on Diwali.
Earlier, Saiyaara was expected to arrive on OTT in late September 2025, following an 8-week successful theatrical run.
Saiyaara to have its extended 90-day-long theatrical window
According to the latest development, the report further suggests that the Saiyaara team is in talks with Netflix to secure a 90-day theatrical window for Mohit Suri's directorial. It will then delay its OTT release to Diwali in October 2025.
Usually, there is a norm of having an eight-week gap between a theatrical release and its streaming on OTT. It will give Yash Raj Films' production more time to maximize its theatrical run.
Saiyaara enters the Rs 150 crore club in 6 days
Released on July 18, 2025, Saiyaara has been performing exceptionally well at the box office. It entered the Rs 100 crore club in just 4 days of its release. The Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer has now crossed the Rs 150 crore mark in 6 days. It has received a positive response from cinephiles. Fans are admiring the on-screen chemistry between the leads and the performances of both actors.
Saiyaara marks the debuts of Ahaan and Aneet as leads in Bollywood. Notably, it is Aneet's second film in her career in Hindi cinema. She made her acting debut in a special appearance in Salaam Venky, directed by Revathy, in 2022.
Produced under the banner of Yash Raj Films, Saiyaara also marks the return of filmmaker Mohit Suri after a three-year hiatus. Suri last directed Ek Villain Returns in 2022.

If you are young and this movie made you cry, ask yourself this question
A nomad interested in twisting the kaleidoscope of science and looking for new patterns I am not a movie buff, and hence it takes a lot for a movie to catch my attention. So, Saiyaara is clearly a phenomenon, more so because everyone who saw had the same experience. It appears that Saiyaara is the romantic anthem of recent times, but with a difference. It is making young people CRY. This is what has forced me to dare engage with the most pragmatic and wise people that ever walked the planet, i.e., people who are under 35 today. As I have interacted with them on various platforms, ranging from students of IIM or NID and even state universities, the first thing I have noticed that in any class that I walked in, my students were wiser than me about the ways of the world. I have noticed that my students always knew why they were in the class room. They were there to get a degree and go out to make money. Nothing more, nothing less. If I asked about their dreams, the answer was always the same. They were very clear. They will make money. They will retire. They will travel the world. This may sound completely normal to you if you are young. But, for me, a man from Gen-past, this was a huge surprise because all we could dream of when we were young was to get the girl/guy we were madly in love with. We were clear too. We wanted to our love interest to speak the three magical words of 'I love you'. And that was it. Our colleges led to as much education as heart breaks or moments of bliss when the other person also said, 'I love you'. Reality that money is the prime mover of the world did hit us, but it was a thereafter-realisation that arrived once we had passed the test of love. Due to this (misplaced?) priority for love that we suffered from, we were prone to crying in the romantic movies. So crying in the movies was not an exception but a norm, for our generation. What we know for sure is that your generation is not like us. Even if we try to think otherwise, your generation that doesn't believe in mincing words always makes it clear to us. So, What doesn't make sense is that you are crying!!! And if you are crying, I suggest that you need to introspect and find out why. As I am from a generation where people fell in love without the pragmatism that your generation has, I have a humble proposition for you to consider, especially because we have experienced the power of love. Look within. You could be crying because you too must have loved just like every other generation. The problem is that your realism must have led you to question that feeling using logic. So, while your heart must have gone down head over heels, your cynicism would have made you rationalise it as a stupid waste of time. You would have put your biological love to the test of financial and worldly realities and it would have fared poorly, making you bury it. While you must have forgotten about it and got busy with work and career, knowing love, let me tell you something that I know. The world may have moved on (as per you), but love is a very stubborn and ancient force that never believes in following the world. Love has a job to do which is considered to be of paramount importance by the mother-system called Life-on-Earth. You may want to make marketing presentations and climb the corporate ladder or build a start up and sell it for a billion dollars, but love doesn't care wee bit. All it wants is that you go through the inconvenience of going forth and multiplying just as your ancestors have done continuously for almost four billion years. You may have managed to forget it by being a realist (to your imaginary reality), love will never forget or forgive (as it responds to the actual and the only reality in which you exist as a body). You may or may not have realised it, but what made you cry is the love that you thought you have buried and moved on. But as love never believes in giving up, on itself or you, it is the culprit that would have made you cry. I know that love is tough but you think you are tougher. You may have momentarily lowered your guards, allowing love to surface but now you would be back to your desk calculating Mutual Fund gain of the day. The movie and the emotions you felt would get crushed under your wisdom about how materialistic is the world, but I have a request. Every generation before you has succumbed to love, and you too are here because someone loved. So, what you are trifling with or ignoring is something bigger than everything that humans do while existing on this planet. Love may seem like an inconvenience now, but as you age, you will realise that burying something so potent is a very dangerous idea. Burying it is not going to work. It has not worked for the entire history of humanity and it is, hence, unlikely to work just because you think you are rational. Today it was a temporary angst caused by the movie, tomorrow it will be deep regret as love is the only binding force human brain can have. If you don't bind using love, all that you will end up with is loneliness. This loneliness would by like an abyss that no amount of wealth or travelling will be able to fill. If you do manage your dream of an early retirement, all you would end up will be more lonely time. If you have cried, I see a ray of hope. Love within you is buried but still is alive as an emotion. If you have cried, you have a chance to reclaim it. Think about it. Facebook Twitter Linkedin Email Disclaimer Views expressed above are the author's own.

What if we tell you that controversies in Indian cinema go way back to the 1940s and 50s? Yes, that's correct. Today, we will discuss an actress who became embroiled in controversy when she romanced her own brother on-screen.

Minoo is the younger sister of legendary comedian Mehmood and the aunt of Lucky Ali. Minoo made her mark in Hindi cinema at the young age of just 13. Her father, Mumtaz Ali, was also a famous actor and dancer at Bombay Talkies. However, when Ali's career was destroyed due to alcohol addiction, his daughter Minoo Mumtaz took on the responsibility of caring for her seven siblings and joined a drama troupe. When poverty struck, Minoo, despite not being the eldest, had to take up the household responsibilities by performing in plays. After her, her elder brother Mehmood also started working as a child artist in films. When Minoo entered films with the 1955 movie Sakhi Hakim, she was just 13 years old. Minoo Mumtaz's elder brother and comedian Mehmood was married to Meena Kumari's sister, Madhu. Because of this relationship, Meena Kumari, who was the sister of Minoo's sister-in-law, helped her a lot. It was Meena Kumari who changed her name from Malikunnisa to Minoo Mumtaz when she entered the film industry. Minoo Mumtaz Romanced Her Elder Brother Minoo found herself in controversy when she was offered the song Gora Rang Chunariya Kali. Opposite Minoo in the song was her brother Mehmood.
