Social media is buzzing with reactions — fans are seen in tears during the emotional climax, while others are celebrating its music through viral dance reels. The film has clearly struck a chord across age groups. Veteran trade analyst Taran Adarsh weighed in on the phenomenon with a heartfelt post on X (formerly Twitter): "'SAIYAARA' REBOOTS - RE-ENERGISES - REJUVENATES THE INDUSTRY... Yes, #Saiyaara is rewriting the record books… It's drawing audiences in hordes – and that, in itself, is a hugely positive sign for the industry... But more than just the numbers, the learnings from #Saiyaara are invaluable" Live Events — amit_code (@amit_code) Adarsh noted that the industry had drifted away from making heartfelt, youth-driven stories that resonate beyond just metro audiences. He pointed out a crucial reality check: "We blamed the audience for empty theatres, but the fault lies within the stopped making the kind of films that compel the youth to flock to cinemas in hundreds and thousands – not just in metros, but even in Tier-2 and Tier-3 centres." "We stopped making youth-centric films that appeal not only to the younger generation, but also to families and seniors [myself included]. We stopped making films that moved us," he wrote ackowledging that the finale moved him to tears. Adarsh added, "We stopped focusing on content – the very first step in the filmmaking process... We sidelined melodies that linger, treating music as mere filler. For many, star power became the be-all and end-all – and the neglect in writing and music was clearly visible. A young love story, driven by great music and heartfelt emotions, will always find its audience." — taran_adarsh (@taran_adarsh) While praising YRF , he said, "YRF, a banner synonymous with love stories, now has another massive blockbuster in its catalogue – a love story, once again... But this time, it stars two rank newcomers and is helmed by the supremely talented #MohitSuri."
