 "Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's 'Saiyaara' to stream on Netflix from this date amid its blockbuster success")
Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda’s ‘Saiyaara’ directed by Mohit Suri was a massive blockbuster at the box-office that made Rs 337 crore. Now, the film is all set to stream on Netflix from September 12.
Mohit Suri, music, and melancholy seem to be a match made in heaven. The filmmaker has completed 20 years in the industry and now sits on cloud nine amid the blockbuster success of his last directorial Saiyaara that stars two newcomers Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda.
In an interview with Subhankar Mishra, Suri revealed why he is not directing Awarapan 2 and Aashiqui 3. The filmmaker revealed he was never approached. “How can I make Aashiqui without Aditya and Shraddha? And remember, the film opened at Rs 3 crore, which wasn’t a huge number. But it became a cult film over time,” said the filmmaker.
He added, “Now, people want to use that brand name and make another film. But it’s more of a project now than a film, and I don’t know if I fit into this.”
Why the filmmaker was replaced in Aashiqui 3
Mohit Suri also said, “They were in a rush, but I said that I wouldn’t announce the film before I’ve written the script. They said they would move on to another director, I said it’s fine. So they moved on to Anurag, who I really look up to.”
He continued, “It’s not only because (Ek Villain 2 flopped) but because they didn’t want to wait for me. But, 100% (people judge you on the basis of hits and flops). And this was my own family that were the ones not willing to wait. And I don’t blame them, because it’s a business.”
About Saiyaara
During the promotions, director Mohit Suri has been speaking about the comparisons with Rockstar and Aashiqui 2. He revealed how his wife asked him if he had his own filmmaking style like Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Pradeep Sarkar. It has been two decades for the filmmaker and now it seems he has his own voice and versions of telling a story.
