The film would have entered the prestigious club by now, but the surprising & humongous response towards Mahavatar Narsimha impacted the collections of the Mohit Suri directorial.
_Saiyaara_ will enjoy a free window along with new and holdover releases until the arrival of two biggies, War 2 featuring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR & Kiara Advani and Coolie starring Rajinikanth, Aamir Khan and Nagarjuna, which are releasing during the Independence Day weekend.
Not only fans and audiences, Saiyaara garnered praise from celebs like Alia Bhatt, Ranveer Singh, Aamir Khan, Mahesh Babu, Arjun Kapoor, Ameesha Patel, Siddharth Anand, Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Karan Johar, Anurag Basu and Anil Kapoor, among others, for its storyline, direction and performances.
Before the release of the movie, director Mohit Suri spoke about Saiyaara's comparison with Aashiqui 2 in an interview with Firstpost. He said, 'When I made Zeher, they said it looked like Murder. When I made Ek Villain, they said it looked like Murder 2. When I made Malang, they said it looked like Ek Villain. When I made Aashiqui 2, they said it looked like Woh Lame and Rockstar. So I think when I go ahead and make my next film, they'll say it looks like Saiyaara. I think when they're comparing it to my own work rather than somebody else's, it's good.'
