The source added, "The script organically flew to perfection and gave Mohit the wings to come up with a rather twisted love story." "If YRF wanted to cash in on Saiyaara, they would have made Saiyaara 2." "This is a rather twisted love story of jilted lovers and in a space very different from Saiyaara."
