To me, Saiyaara was the biggest win of 2025 - Page 4

I couldn’t stand 15 minutes of that movie. Thankfully I wasn’t in the theatre but watching on Netflix. Switched off after the ridiculous first 10-15 minutes.

You missed sasu-ma's hospital wedding proposal.

Fortunately, perceptions are individual... switching off a movie after 15 minutes is not even giving the movie a chance (imo)... yet 'to each their own', right?

Chill...It's a movie, not a relationship.

Well, I think, I'm quite chilled (which doesn't hinder me to make certain comments )

As for "relationships", I've no liv(f)e-experience with 15-min-switch-offs

Thats the difference between watching movies at home Vs in the theatre...If I were watching a movie at home, 15 mnts is usually my attention span too within which I know if the movie is for me or not...I am not wasting anymore of my time if it wasnt able to capture my attention in the first 15-30mnts....I always say if I tried to watched October on OTT, I would've missed it because the mundaneness of the first 15 mnts would've just got me to switch over to another movie....

Saiyaar was a average watch, liked both actors, i am still surprised to see it did that kind of business. but yes..a clean organic hit with no no agenda ,deshdrohi, deshbhakti issues. just simple movie to spread love i guess

There is an entire generation that hasn't experienced this kind of movie before. For some Gen Z'ers/Alphas this is their DDLJ. That's the reason it worked and clicked. They probably also haven't seen this level of good acting in a romantic movie.

I have seen the movies that have been mentioned and saairya in my opinion is movie that one can easily rewatch as the story and music is spellbinding. Dhundhar the reason I saw it was due to the viral song with Akshay Khanna and yes the movie had intensity and each characters entry with music well thought out but the story wasn’t extraordinary, however, the presentation well packaged. The same with Saairya nothing new either but the music and the story how it was presented was gripping and its happy ending !! Both movies drew in youngsters who mainly watch movie in theaters . !!
