My Take
Mohit Suri occupies a niche I wish more directors took seriously: the musical melodrama made with total conviction. Aashiqui 2 showed his real gift, letting songs carry the emotional weight of the story rather than merely decorating it, and Ek Villain proved he could fold that sensibility into a thriller. What impresses me most is his patience; after two decades of steady work, Saiyaara in 2025 became the biggest hit of his career, a rare late peak in an industry obsessed with youth. He makes unfashionable, sincere films for audiences who want to feel something, and I find that quietly admirable.
