Saiyaara Beats BLACKPINK, Billie Eilish, Justin Bieber To Top Spotify's Global Viral 50
Last Updated: Saiyaara becomes 1st Indian song to top Spotify Global Viral 50, beating BLACKPINK, Billie Eilish & Justin Bieber. A milestone moment for Indian music. The Saiyaara wave shows no signs of slowing down. The film's hauntingly beautiful title track has not only taken over Indian cinema halls but is now echoing across global playlists, creating history as the first-ever Indian song to top Spotify's Global Viral 50 chart. Sung by Faheem Abdullah and composed by Tanishk Bagchi, Saiyaara has surged past international music heavyweights like Justin Bieber, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, BLACKPINK, and Sabrina Carpenter, marking a watershed moment for Indian music on the world stage. Celebrating the milestone, composer Tanishk Bagchi shared a heartfelt post on Instagram, 'We did it. Saiyaara is now #1 on Global Viral Spotify. This moment belongs to every heartbeat behind the song." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Tanishk (@tanishk_bagchi) Bagchi went on to thank the creative team, writing, 'Thank you to Mohit Suri sir, the man with the vision. Irshad bhai, for penning words that pierced hearts. Arsalan & Faheem, your music and your voice brought the sky closer. YRF, for backing us with belief. And to every listener, every sharer, every dreamer — this is yours too." He concluded with a powerful declaration, 'Indian music isn't rising. It's already flying. Saiyaara is the proof." For years, Tanishk Bagchi's name has been synonymous with Bollywood hits—but also with controversy. Known for delivering chartbusters at lightning speed, the composer has often been criticised for relying too heavily on remakes. But with Saiyaara, the soulful title track from Mohit Suri's latest romantic drama, Bagchi feels he has finally broken free of the label—and found long-overdue vindication. 'People used to say that I only recreated songs. But they didn't know that I have composed a number of good original songs as well," he told Hindustan Times. 'Par ab Saiyaara se logo ko pata chal raha hai ki Tanishk Bagchi original mein bhi baap hai (People are finally realising that I'm a master at originals too). I'm really loving it all. I've received a lot of encouragement." Meanwhile, the film Saiyaara is rewriting box office records. Headlined by newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the Mohit Suri directorial opened with a staggering ₹21 crore, the highest-ever first-day collection for a debutant-led film. Within just eight days, it stormed past the ₹200 crore mark, with packed shows continuing to dominate theatres.
