Top Opening Weekend 2025: Saiyaara takes the 2nd spot surpassing Housefull 5, Sikandar and Raid 2; Chhaava retains top position
Mohit Suri's Saiyaara starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda is wrecking the box office. After a phenomenal Rs 21 crore day 1, Saiyaara grew by close to 20 percent to net Rs 25 crore on Saturday. It added another mindboggling Rs 35-36 crore net on Sunday, to take the weekend to Rs 81-82 crore net. This is a debut of a kind we have not seen, nor shall we see in the next few years. Saiyaara Takes A Magnificent Rs 81.50 Crore Net Opening Weekend; Makes A Mockery Of Pre-Release Expectations Saiyaara made a mockery of all pre-release predictions, and by a margin. There were numbers like Rs 3 - 4 crore net floating in the trade circle for the opening day, with few expecting an under Rs 3 crore number. For the film to open 7 times as much only proves how unpredictable box office can be. The unpredictability of the film is far from over as the bookings for not just Monday, but also Tuesday are historic. With Son Of Sardaar 2 postponing, the film has yet another open week to keep the cash registers ringing. Saiyaara Takes The 2nd Best India Net Opening Weekend Start For A Bollywood Movie This Year Coming back to analysing the India net weekend of Saiyaara, it has taken the 2nd best opening weekend for a Bollywood movie of 2025. The collections of the film are just under Chhaava, which opened to Rs 108 crore net and legged to Rs 550 crore plus. Housefull 5, Sikandar, Sky Force, Sitaare Zameen Par and Raid 2 follow suit. The Top Opening Bollywood Movies Of 2025 In The First Weekend Are As Under Rank Movies Net India Weekend Collections 1 Chhaava Rs 108 crore 2 Saiyaara Rs 81 - 82 crore 3 Housefull 5 Rs 79 crore 4 Sikandar Rs 71 crore 5 Sky Force Rs 63.50 crore 6 Sitaare Zameen Par Rs 56.50 crore 7 Raid 2 Rs 49.25 crore (Rs 71 crore ext weekend) Rank Net India Weekend Collections Saiyaara In Theatres Saiyaara is a certified blockbuster and it can go on to be a super blockbuster or perhaps an all time blockbuster too.

In some cities like Jaipur, they reported nearly 50% occupancy in Monday early morning shows—a rarity post-pandemic. This kind of Monday buzz, especially for a film starring two debut actors, hasn't been witnessed in years. Industry veteran Taran Adarsh even called the film a turning point for the theatrical business in 2025. In a market that's seen both hits and misses, Saiyaara has brought back confidence to distributors and theatre owners, proving that the right story—paired with sensible budgeting and pricing—can still draw massive crowds, he said. Even industry stalwarts have taken note. Legendary filmmaker Subhash Ghai praised the film on social media, stating that its success is a reminder to producers not to overinvest in stars or unnecessary marketing. He emphasized that a strong, emotional story with the right casting is more than enough to win hearts—and box office numbers—across India. With no big stars, modest marketing, and debutant leads, Saiyaara relied on solid storytelling and good music to draw in crowds.
