In such a situation, ‘Saira’ raised the note at the box office and took out his budget in just three days. In such a situation, we are telling you 5 reasons, due to which Ahaan Pandey’s debut film has become a hit.

1. Songs and singers of ‘Saira’
   All the songs of ‘Saira’ have climbed the audience’s tongue. Even before the film came on screen, its songs were released which were trending on social media. All songs were chartbusters, from the title track of ‘Saira’ to Teri Mein Mein Mein Mein Mein Mein. Apart from this, the best singers of the country were selected for these songs. Arijit Singh, Zubin Nautiyal, Shreya Ghoshal, Vishal Mishra and the conscious tradition were magic.
2. ‘Aashiqui 3’ connection
   Before the release of ‘Saira’, director Mohit Suri himself told Pinkvila that the film was first drafts for the ‘Aashiqui 3’ title. However, later there was a rift between Mukesh Bhatt and Bhashan Kumar and then the film was named ‘Saira’. ‘Aashiqui 2’ was a hit and in such a situation ‘Aashiqui 3’ connection of ‘Saira’ excited the audience for the film.
3. Long time after love story movie

In support of Joginder Tuteja, the users said that they are right that these Pandens came from outside the syllabus.

Saira became a tremendous hit without any PR
Famous filmmaker Sanjay Gupta praised Saira and has drawn his anger on PR. He says that like the South Film Industry, we should also release our films directly in theaters without any PR or promotion. We should learn from films like 12th failure and Saira. The filmmaker took out his anger and said that the film industry was working without print or advertising, but the corporates have come and spoiled the entire work. Corporates have gone but the producers have still continued the stupid trend of the promotions.

The South Never Followed The Dumb P & A Practise.
They did just fin. More than fin.
And then come films like 12th fail and saiyaara straight to theatres.
Smash Hits with no Pr Nonsense.
Can we please learn our lesson?
2/2
