Bollywood is buzzing with excitement as the much-loved blockbuster ‘Saiyaara’ inches closer to a historic box office milestone. The film, starring [Lead Actor/Actress Names], has captivated audiences with its powerful performances, heart-touching storyline, and chart-topping music.

The Benchmark: Bajrangi Bhaijaan

Some fans say ‘Saiyaara’ feels like an emotional ride they didn’t want to end, while others argue that ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ still holds the crown when it comes to impact.
