An excerpt from the 온라인 카지노 사이트 India review of the film read, "Saiyaara recycles every trope in a love story, dressing it up with Suri’s typical ballads to accentuate the bends of a seemingly doomed relationship. Both the leads are defined by grief and trauma. There's heartbreak, manipulation and cruel hijinks of destiny, aiming to give beats to this wretchedly overstretched saga. A lot of tears are shed but little in this film scorches the screen or summons a grand tide of passionate, bruised emotion."
