Mohit Suri’s romantic drama 'Saiyaara', starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, continues to make waves long after its theatrical release. While the film’s strong box office run took many by surprise, it’s the music that’s now stealing the spotlight globally.

Produced by YRF’s Akshaye Widhani, 'Saiyaara' boasts an emotionally rich soundtrack that’s clearly resonated with audiences worldwide. The film’s title track has now stormed into the top 10 on Spotify’s 'Top 50 Global chart'—landing at an impressive No. 8 at the time of reporting. This places the Bollywood ballad ahead of music by global icons like Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, and Sabrina Carpenter.
