Yash Raj Films has released a collector’s vinyl set for the soundtrack of the romantic drama Saiyaara to mark the film’s first anniversary. The two-disc collection, launched at London’s Wembley Stadium, includes the complete film score, dialogue sequences, and exclusive memorabilia, following the film’s reported global box office gross of over INR 580 crore ($69 million).
Collector’s Edition Vinyl Features and Content
The Saiyaara collector’s edition is a comprehensive two-disc set designed for archival preservation of the film’s audio identity. According to Yash Raj Films, the first disc contains the nine original songs from the soundtrack. The second disc provides an expanded experience with 25 additional recordings, including 16 background score compositions and nine prominent dialogue sequences from the movie.
Beyond the audio components, the package includes:
- A "Saiyaara" Diary: Featuring personal notes from director Mohit Suri, producer Akshaye Widhani, stars Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, and various music contributors.
- Character Memorabilia: An ink pen reminiscent of Vaani’s notebook from the film and two character bookmarks representing Krish and Vaani.
Venue Significance and Anniversary Context
The launch event at Wembley Stadium holds thematic relevance to the film’s narrative. In Saiyaara, the stadium serves as the setting for the finale concert sequence and a pivotal moment where the character Krish Kapoor identifies Vaani Batra on a large screen.
Yash Raj Films CEO Akshaye Widhani stated that the project was a "deeply personal film" that signaled the studio’s return to the romance genre.

The collector’s edition features contributions from a wide array of musical talent, including Tanishk Bagchi, Faheem Abdullah, Arslan Nizami, Irshad Kamil, The Rish, Vishal Mishra, Raj Shekhar, Sachet-Parampara, Mithoon, and John Stewart Eduri.
