'Saiyaara' at Wembley

Yash Raj Films’ ‘Saiyaara’ became one of the biggest success stories in recent years, as this Mohit Suri directorial, produced by YRF’s CEO Akshaye Widhani, grossed over Rs.580 crore worldwide, becoming the highest‑grossing love story in the history of Indian cinema. The film also catapulted its leading pair — now Gen Z sweethearts Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda — to instant stardom, establishing them as breakout performers of their generation.

Today, ‘Saiyaara’ turns one, and YRF is celebrating the moment with “Ahneet”, as the duo are affectionately known by their fans. They visited Wembley Stadium to unveil an exclusive Collector’s Edition Vinyl LP of ‘Saiyaara’ — a keepsake for fans and music lovers who connected deeply with the film’s soundtrack, emotions and timeless moments.

For those who adore ‘Saiyaara’, Wembley holds special significance. It marks the iconic moment in the film when Ahaan, as Krish Kapoor, recognises Vaani Batra by her eyes on the stadium’s giant screen. The finale concert sequence also reunites Krish and Vaani at Wembley, making it the perfect setting for unveiling the anniversary LP.

The two‑disc Collector’s Edition brings together the complete musical journey of ‘Saiyaara’. LP‑1 features all nine songs from the blockbuster soundtrack, while LP‑2 includes 25 tracks — 16 original background score compositions and nine of the film’s most memorable dialogues — allowing audiences to relive every emotion that made ‘Saiyaara’ a defining cinematic experience.

The Collector’s Pack has been designed as a true keepsake, including a specially curated ‘Saiyaara’ Diary with heartfelt notes from Akshaye Widhani, Mohit Suri, Ahaan Panday, Aneet Padda, Tanishk Bagchi, Faheem Abdullah, Arslan Nizami, Irshad Kamil, The Rish, Vishal Mishra, Raj Shekhar, Sachet‑Parampara, Mithoon and John Stewart Eduri. Completing the experience are an exclusive ink pen inspired by Vaani’s notebook from ‘Saiyaara’ and two specially designed bookmarks featuring Krish and Vaani.

Akshaye Widhani said, “‘Saiyaara’ was a deeply personal film for us because it marked our return to romance… As we celebrate ‘Saiyaara’s’ first anniversary, we are delighted to mark the occasion with the launch of an exclusive Collector’s Edition Vinyl LP… a definitive keepsake that preserves the complete emotional journey of ‘Saiyaara’.”

Director Mohit Suri added, “Music is the soul of any love story… The core of ‘Saiyaara’ was always the fact that a song has the power to take you back to a moment, bring back a memory… bring back love! That’s why this LP isn’t just a collection of tracks. It’s a chance for people to experience the film all over again.”
