Summary
- Saiyaara marks Ahaan Panday's debut and Mohit Suri's first YRF collaboration

In August 2025, the film industry is abuzz with the news of Saiyaara, a cinematic milestone that has shattered several records. The romantic musical saga marks the much-anticipated debut of Ahaan Panday and the first collaboration between director Mohit Suri and Yash Raj Films (YRF).
But the film's significance extends beyond its creative firsts. Saiyaara has now become the first YRF production to stream on Netflix after a successful theatrical run. This development is seen as a significant shift in the prestigious production house's digital strategy, as all previous YRF films had been released on Amazon Prime after their cinematic releases.
The Netflix logo's appearance during Saiyaara's end credits song confirms the streaming giant's partnership with YRF for this project. This move comes on the heels of YRF's growing presence on the digital landscape, with the production house's vertical, YRF Entertainment, already making waves with acclaimed web series like The Romantics and The Railway Men on Netflix.
As Saiyaara continues to rule the box office, poised to cross the ₹300 crore mark by the end of its third weekend, this groundbreaking partnership with Netflix ensures that the film's reach will extend beyond the big screen. The audience can now look forward to experiencing Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's on-screen chemistry on the streaming platform, further cementing Saiyaara's status as a true cinematic event.
