Box Office: Saiyaara enters the Rs 100 crore club in 4 days flat; Monday higher than Friday for Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer
The Day Wise India Net Collections Of Saiyaara Are As Under
Saiyaara Nets Higher Than Opening Day On First Monday; A First For A Film With A Rs 20 Crore Plus Net India Start
Saiyaara is a box office force like none other, in recent memory. We have never had a Rs 20 crore plus net India opener, actually growing in collections on non-Holiday Monday.
It has become the first film featuring debutants to enter the Rs 100 crore club. For it to enter the club in just 4 days is unbelievable. With Saiyaara, the total number of Rs 100 crore plus India net grossers from Bollywood in 2025 stand at 7, the other 6 being Chhaava, Housefull 5, Raid 2, Sitaare Zameen Par, Sky Force and Sikandar.
The bookings are robust for 'Discount Tuesday' with footfalls sure to be higher than Monday. If the collections see a drop on Tuesday, it will likely be due to low average ticket prices. A week one of Rs 160 crore net is certain, and that means the lifetime collections of this year's biggies Housefull 5, Raid 2 and Sitaare Zameen Par will mostly be breached in 7 days flat.
To note, this phenomenon is occuring for a film that was expected to open to Rs 3 - 4 crore, a week before release, with the ceiling being Rs 5 crore. Expectations for the Mohit Suri film increased once the pre-bookings started. But still, a Rs 20 crore plus day one number was something that never crossed anyone's mind. Now, the film is on course for a lifetime number that will be remembered for decades.
International Markets Have Also Got On Board For Saiyaara
The collections of the film being higher on Monday than the opening day is not just an India-wide phenomenon. The international markets have got on board. With Monday bookings in sync with the first Saturday, the romantic-drama is set for a lifetime number of over USD 10 million.

Sanjay Dutt confirms 62-year-old woman left her entire Rs 72 crore property to him; reveals what he did with it
Fans often go to great lengths to express their love for their favourite stars. Recently, an old story about a female fan of Sanjay Dutt leaving her Rs 72 crore worth property to the actor after her passing in 2018 went viral. While many believed it to be fake news, Sanjay recently confirmed the story in an interaction. However, it's what he did with the property that is truly heartfelt and reflects the actor's real personality. In an interaction with Curly Tales, Sanjay was asked if it was true that a female fan had left him property worth Rs 72 crore. The Khal Nayak star admitted it was true and said, 'It is true.' When asked what he did with the property, he said, 'I gave it back to the family.' In 2018, Nisha Patil, a devoted fan of Sanjay Dutt, made headlines for leaving her entire property — worth a massive Rs 72 crore — to the actor. Nisha was a 62-year-old homemaker from Mumbai. She was reportedly suffering from a terminal illness and had informed her bank before her death to hand over all her assets to Sanjay Dutt after her passing. Like Sanjay Dutt, Shah Rukh Khan too had once shared an incident involving a fan. In an earlier interaction, Shah Rukh recalled a story of a fan who breached the security of his residence, Mannat, and entered just to swim in his pool. He said, 'One night, a person entered the house, he took off his clothes, jumped into my swimming pool and swam. When the security guard caught him asking who he was, he said, 'I don't want anything. I just wanted to bath in Shah Rukh Khan's swimming pool.' I found that very endearing and amusing. When I was called down, I met and hugged him. He did not want any photo or autograph.' Coming back to Sanjay Dutt, the actor made his debut in 1981 with Rocky. Over the years, he has delivered several cult classics including Vidhaata, Naam, Saajan, Khal Nayak, Vaastav, Munna Bhai M.B.B.S. and more. However, his career was also marred by controversy when he was arrested under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) for possessing illegal weapons linked to the 1993 Bombay blasts. He was convicted under the Arms Act and sentenced to five years in prison.

Aneet Padda to Star in Web Series Nyaya After Saiyaara Success
Aneet Padda, who became popular after her big-screen debut in Saiyaara, will be seen next in a web series called Nyaya. Some fans were surprised by her move to an OTT platform, but people in the film industry say there's no need to worry. Nyaya was filmed before she started working on Saiyaara, and it won't affect her growing movie career. Saiyaara, which stars Ahaan Panday and Aneet, has become a huge success. In just 10 days, the movie made ₹248.43 crore at the box office. It's expected to cross ₹300 crore soon, making Aneet one of the most talked-about new stars in Bollywood. Her next project, Nyaya, is a fictional story based on real events. The show is directed by Nitya Mehra and co-produced by her husband Karan Kapadia. Aneet plays a 17-year-old girl fighting for justice after being hurt by a powerful spiritual leader. Actress Fatima Sana Shaikh plays a police officer in the series. It will be released soon on a major streaming platform. Even though she is doing a web series, Aneet will continue working in big films. A source from Yash Raj Films (YRF) said, 'Aneet is a movie star. Nyaya was shot before Saiyaara, so it doesn't affect her future in cinema.' With Saiyaara expected to earn ₹400 crore, YRF plans to promote Aneet as one of the top new stars in Bollywood.

Hari Hara Veera Mallu Box Office Collections: Pawan Kalyan starrer declared dead on Friday, moved a finger on Sunday
Hari Hara Veera Mallu pulled off a mild surprise over the weekend, as the film managed to pick up some collections in Andhra Pradesh. The Pawan Kalyan starrer grossed approximately Rs. 83.50 crore in India over its four-day opening weekend. Overseas, the film added another USD 1.60 million (Rs. 13.50 crore), pushing its worldwide total to Rs. 97 crore. After crashing nearly 80 per cent on Friday, the expectation was for Hari Hara Veera Mallu to continue free-falling. However, the film showed signs of stability on Saturday and then pulled off a surprising 60 per cent growth on Sunday in Andhra Pradesh. Even Telangana and Karnataka contributed decently, when they too could have completely collapsed. Of course, the weekend pickings don't change anything; the film was left for dead on Friday, but it managed to claw back some ground. It will now go over Rs. 100 crore worldwide in a day or two, which seemed far-fetched two days ago. The Day Wise Box Office Collections of Hari Hara Veera Mallu in India are as follows: Hari Hara Veera Mallu is yet another box office turkey delivered by Pawan Kalyan, who is arguably the biggest star in the Telugu states but hasn't delivered a box office winner in more than a decade. There was a Bheemla Nayak, which did decently well, but was unlucky to release in the circumstances it did and ended up from being a success. The film is also a setback for the Telugu film industry, which is having a horrific year at the box office, except for a couple of weeks of Sankranti Vashthunam during the holiday period. The last year was also a bad one in general, but there were four major hits spread across the year. This year has offered nothing. The Territorial Breakdown for Hari Hara Veera Mallu is as follows:
