Background
Saiyaara has had a dream run at the box office. Within six days of release, the film collected Rs 153.25 crore, surpassing the collections of big releases like Sikandar, Kesari and Jaat.
Directed by Mohit Suri, Saiyaara is a romance drama produced by Yash Raj Films. Known for directing hits like Aashiqui 2 and Ek Villain.
Mohit Suri had earlier shared in an interview with Bollywood Hungama why he chose Aneet for the role. He said, "I'm sorry if I don't sound politically correct, but one thing that was very scary was that I wanted a 20-22-year-old girl who hadn't done anything cosmetological to her face or body in today's age. That was a big requirement."
