Direction & Visual Storytelling

Mohit Suri, celebrated for hits like Aashiqui 2 and Ek Villain, returns with a stripped-down, emotionally grounded romance. His pacing is deliberate; conversations happen without flourish. Silences become loaded, music becomes part of the dialogue, and rain‑washed Mumbai streets reflect inner turmoil. il

The film’s length (2 hours 36 minutes) is occasionally sluggish, especially in the second act.

Music: The Heartbeat of Saiyaara

Saiyaara’s soundtrack is not a decoration—it is the film's emotional lifeblood. Multiple composers contribute to a unified yet multi‑tonal album: the title track, Barbaad, Tum Ho Toh, D, Hun, and Humsafar all transcend typical Bollywood numbers.

The title track by Faheem Abdullah and Arslan Nizami sets the emotional tone early and returns at narrative peaks. Jubin Nautiyal’s Barbaad serves as the breakup anthem. Arijit Singh and Mithoon’s Dhun conveys unresolved longing, while Humsafar offers a rare, hopeful uplift.

Strengths & Weaknesses

✅ What Works

⚠️ What Falls Short

• Pacing issues: The 2.5‑hour runtime could have used trimming; some sequences feel over‑extended.

• Screenplay laziness: A few scenes are repetitive or logically inconsistent.
