Taking to Instagram, she penned a lengthy note in which she revealed that the film is the result of years of Suri's patience, hard work, frustration, anxiety, and sleepless nights.
Uditaa shared a couple of pictures capturing the director's candid moments with her and their kids. The 'Zeher' wrote in the caption of her post, "Mohit Suri, I honestly don't know where to begin-it feels a little strange saying this out loud because we usually keep things private. At home, I rarely express my appreciation; I'm more often the one giving reminders: "Turn off the lights," "Switch off the AC," "Hang your wet towel," "Give me some attention," "Stop watching TV or playing games on your phone..."
And when I ask for help around the house, you say, "All I know is how to make movies." Well, that, you definitely do."
Mohit Suri's Emotional Wrap on 'Saiyaara' Sets Hearts Ablaze
"This moment didn't come easy. It's the result of years of patience, hard work, frustration, anxiety, sleepless nights, and the quiet insecurity of waiting for your time-while still holding on to the belief that you were good enough. You wanted our kids to witness the highs you once had, to feel proud of their father.

And now, you haven't just reached that point-you've surpassed it. They can see it. We all can."
Goswami added, "I know people love taking credit when something big succeeds, but when it comes to #Saiyaara, it's all you. I'm not vain enough to believe otherwise. You sacrificed a lot to pursue your vision-turned down so many tempting offers, started fresh, and rebuilt everything from the ground up.
"You're a star maker-you don't need stars to shine, and you've never compromised on your creative integrity. It should always be your way. And I hope this film shows everyone just how powerful that can be. That said... don't forget: you still have to come home, hang your wet towel, and switch off the AC!," she concluded.
Mohit Suri's latest offering "Saiyaara" marked the acting debut of
Ahaan Panday
, cousin of actress

Exclusive: Why Mohit Suri Walked Out Of A Saiyaara Scene Starring Ahaan Panday And Aneet Padda
New Delhi: Even three weeks after its release, Saiyaara continues to run strong at the box office. But director Mohit Suri's most defining moment didn't come from collections or reviews, it came while shooting a quiet piano scene in Madh Island. 'I remember this one instance in the film, and I'm someone who's very critical about his own work,' he said in an exclusive conversation with NDTV. 'We were shooting the piano scene, when she says something and he just kisses her forehead and he's leaving. When that shot happened, I just walked out of that… We were shooting in Madh Island, I walked out and Sumana, who's our creative producer, was on set, and I said, 'Sumana, I am making a very good film.'' Suri, known for his deeply emotional and musical narratives, said the scene moved him not because of pride in his own direction but because of the honesty the cast brought to it. 'I cry on the monitor. I've cried quite a few times. But I don't like to talk about it because I've seen a lot of directors become mimics of themselves and cry when they don't need to,' he added. The filmmaker spoke at length about how making this movie took him back to his core emotions and music. ' 'It feels relieved. The collections are an added bonus, no doubt, but it's the love that's so humbling. When you put yourself into a film so much, and you've kept to the essentials, your voice, your emotions. It's amazing to see that India has accepted that. You can have hits and misses, but when you're accepted for who you are, that's what matters.' Suri, whose last romantic musical hit was Aashiqui 2 over a decade ago, credits his producers and cast for giving him the freedom to create without the commercial pressures that often cloud the filmmaking process. 'They never gave me a number, never asked for a certain kind of opening or chartbuster. They just said, give us your best film, give us your best music. There's a difference. That's what gave me the wings to fly, to be fearless.' He also shared that producer Aditya Chopra's early faith in the film gave him confidence. 'Adi sir saw a very loose cut and decided the release date. He was confident from the start. I was in Class 8 when I watched Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and dreamt of making a love story like that. So, for someone like him to say, 'You've made a great film,' meant a lot.' The director reflected on how humbling the entire journey has been, especially the audience's response. 'I'm really indebted to my producers, my actors, and my audience. Often, we say we gave actors a chance, but really, they took me into their world and helped me meet a new generation again.' 'You don't plan to make a blockbuster. You plan to make a good film. That's what we tried to do. No shaadi song, no pressure to add a Punjabi beat. I cast people who felt right, not names that would sell.' For Mohit Suri, it wasn't about manufacturing a hit.

Kitna hi long distance hai, 2 ghante ki hi flight hoti hai. Every weekend I am there. Vaha par paps agye toh vo bhaag jayega.' (He's not from here, he's from Delhi. My boyfriend is 6'4". No matter how long-distance it is, it's just a two-hour flight. I'm there every weekend. If the paps show up, he'll run away.) She added that her boyfriend is extremely shy and doesn't enjoy social media attention. "He doesn't like all this.

Saiyaara actor Varun Badola makes shocking revelations about the movie's promotions: 'Little overboard…, man in drip was…'
Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's debut film Saiyaara has created a stir in Indian cinema. Directed by Mohit Suri, this film is not only breaking records at the box office, but has also set a new example in the romantic musical genre. It has become the first romantic film to earn such a huge amount. It has received a tremendous response from the audience, so tremendous that videos of fans' emotional reactions on social media have become a viral sensation. Now, an actor of the film has given a big statement regarding Saiyaara, which is surprising everyone. This actor is none other than Varun Badola, who plays the onscreen role of Krish Kapoor's father. Varun Bodala is a popular TV star who is known for his work in Meri Dad Ki Dulhan, Des Mein Nikla Hoga Chand, Kohra, Kumkum and Qubool Hai . Were people paid for indirectly promoting Saiyaara? As soon as the film was released, several videos surfaced showing young people lying on the floor inside and outside theatres, tearing their T-shirts, crying uncontrollably, and even fainting. The most attention-grabbing of these was a video of a young man named Faizal, a resident of Sadana, who came to watch the film in a theatre with an IV drip attached, leaving people shocked. After the video went viral, the focus shifted from the man's emotions to the film's marketing strategy. Many began speculating that this was a PR stunt by the makers to ensure the film's success. Some argued that such actions couldn't have come from regular moviegoers and claimed that these people were paid participants, questioning, 'Why would a common man do something like this in a theatre?' Varun Badola clarified that he understands the need and process of promotion, but it feels good only within a limit. He told Screen, 'No film can earn 500 crores based on Instagram promotion alone. This means that people are actually going and watching the film and they are liking it very much.' 'By the third or fourth day, the film was being talked about. I saw the euphoria on Instagram. Log jo chudiyaan tod rahe hain, chhaatiyaan peet rahe hai (People were breaking their bangles, beating their chest). I think the promotions team went a little overboard there, where people are going to see the film, putting IV drips', he added. He concluded, 'Those people must have been told to give content in some way; thank god, people didn't get their legs broken and went crawling to see the film. It's okay. We understand promoting the film, but it's good only up to a certain level. However, the film cannot earn so much money just based on Instagram promotions. People have gone and seen the film, and they have loved it.'
