Box Office Report: Saiyaara Inches Towards The 100-Crore Club

Saiyaara has taken everyone by surprise with a blockbuster opening weekend, earning over Rs 80 crore in just three days. Directed byMohit Suri and featuring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the film has turned into one of the biggest success stories of the year. No one really saw it coming, especially since it stars two debutantes, but the audience response has been nothing short of phenomenal.

The film kicked off strong with Rs 21 crore on day one. It picked up even more on Saturday with Rs 25 crore, and Sunday turned out to be its biggest day yet with collections touching around Rs 37 crore, according to early estimates. The buzz around the film grew with each passing day, and it clearly struck a chord with viewers, both for its fresh pairing and the emotional story at its core.

What’s made this rise even more impressive is how Saiyaara has left behind some of Mohit Suri’s earlier hits like Ek Villain and Aashiqui 2 in terms of opening weekend numbers. It’s now comfortably sitting among the top five biggest films of 2025, right behind big films like Chhaava, Housefull 5 and Sikandar. And considering it had no big star pulling crowds, that says a lot about the kind of impact it’s making.

In just three days, the film has already gone past the lifetime collection of Student of the Year and is close to beating Dhadak as well. Mohit Suri has been vocal about why the film works. He wanted to tell a love story that feels real, not dreamy or sugar coated. And that honesty seems to have landed with the audience. Saiyaara has not only launched two fresh faces but also reminded everyone that a good story, told with heart, can win big.
