Saiyaara Sets Box Office Records, Nears ₹300 Crore

Saiyaara, directed by Mohit Suri and starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has grossed over ₹400 crore worldwide and Rs 280.5 crore domestically by the end of its second week. The film set new records, including the highest second-week collection for an Indian film in the UK and became the highest-grossing Hindi romance ever, surpassing Kabir Singh and Pathaan’s UK record. Saiyaara earned Rs 21 crore on its opening day in India and is now the year’s second-highest-grossing Indian film after Chhaava. Despite limited promotion, its emotional storytelling and lead chemistry have made the newcomers instant stars. Viral moments, such as Ahaan Panday’s nephew River wearing a tribute T-shirt, have boosted the film’s cultural impact. The movie is expected to cross Rs 300 crore domestically despite new competition.
