Algorithm-Driven Bollywood and How Saiyaara Dares to Dream Differently

Saiyaaraa gaya tel lene.....ye batao....ye aapne swayam likha hai??,,,The title......You should seriously think about writing a book...or atleast write for some magazines....

If I were you I would not be wasting such talent here....

Yeah, I was thinking of it for a very long time...it took me time to write it...but yeah, it's mine

Yep this looks like an article ripped straight out of a premium magazine/newspaper written by seasoned journalists. You should definitely send this to a magazine. May be you can start with sending it directly to Ahaan And Aneet and request it to be posted somewhere.

I deal with books and reading and words as part of my day-to-day life, as I work in publishing.

The slush pile’s gone digital. Bookstores are making a comeback. Covers are getting moodier. Genres are blending like smoothies. And every day, someone somewhere is reviving a backlist title no one saw coming.

It's chaotic. It's unpredictable. But it's never dull.

Minor Correction needed.

Ahaan Pandey is Debuting, not Aneet Padda.

This is her 2nd Film after Salaam Venky(2022) where she played Vishal Jetha's Girlfriend.

Yes, Fresh Faces, we can say.

This film comes in category of QSQT, ROCKY, ISHQZAADE.

Minty I’m going to use your topic to talk to my friend minion. I think after nearly a year something finally is happening in this girls head and she realizes the uncle is a scummy dude

Bollywood had lost its connection to the audience long time ago. Now it is about VFX spectacles, over-inflated budgets, noisy songs and big stars. after what seemed like forever, Saiyaara gave people a chance to FEEL-so much that they were compelled to go to the theaters instead of waiting for it to come on OTT. I've said in another post, audience can smell bullshit from miles away. These Star kid launch vehicles with leads who can barely speak Hindi is as inauthentic as it gets. Saiyaara broke through all that facade and focused on connecting with audience. the movie was not perfect...but it was authentic. It is apparent everyone involved put their heart and soul into it. That's why it succeeded, it is as simple as that

Agreed! well said!!!!

What? the girl needed a whole ass year to understand that? What's up with her mom? and her poor husband?
