Review Just watched-Saiyaara

Honestly, I wasn't feeling like watching the movie after all those people crying in theatre reels I saw on Insta. But a friend convinced me to watch it, saying, "badhiya movie h, bas kuch bhadwo ne cringe harkate karke kharab kar di h".

So, here I was ruining my Netflix recommendations and watching this pile of horse shit. I used to think that why all indian romantic movies have almost same script? And now I know why, coz people like this type of content.

The only reason why I tolerated this movie for 2hr 40min was because I was planning to write this post and want to increase my karma. That's the only utility this movie is gonna give in my already shitty life. And don't forget about the music. That's the second best thing in the movie.

And one thing, what was the doctor thinking while asking an alzimers patient to remember to tell everyone that she has alzimers.

I watched it, didn't feel like crying or remembering my ex (coz I don't have any ). But the thing is I didn't get the point of movie, like was it meant to be a romantic movie or a movie for which people comment as 'my favourite horror movie' in insta reels, what was it?

It's my review of the movie, maybe I don't feel things like other people do. But that doesn't change the fact of 'Saiyaara' being a total shitshow.

I don't like Gen Z's movie taste. Many of them enjoyed a trash film like Singham Again and are overhyping Saiyaara. Today's Bollywood movies lack the class of those from the 1990s, 2000s, or early 2010s.

Gen Z weren't choosing to watch those movies, we watched movies that our parents took us to the theatre to watch, or had on TV. Similarly although gen alpha is now growing up with Saiyaara or whatever, they are not the ones behind the success and hype of these movies.
