Saiyaara worldwide box office: Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda starrer beats War, Dunki & Tiger 3, set to enter Rs 500 crore club
_Saiyaara_ currently stands with a worldwide gross total of Rs 486 crore and has surpassed biggies like War (Rs 475.62 crore), Dunki (Rs 470.6 crore) and Tiger 3 (Rs 466.63 crore). The film will become the 16th Bollywood film to cross the Rs 500 crore benchmark globally after Dangal (Rs 1968.03 crore), Jawan (Rs 1148.32 crore), Pathaan (Rs 1050.3 crore), Bajrangi Bhaijaan (Rs 918.18 crore), Animal (Rs 917.82 crore), Secret Superstar (Rs 875.78 crore), Stree 2 (Rs 874.58 crore), Chhaava (Rs 797.34 crore), PK (Rs 769.89 crore), Gadar 2 (Rs 691.08 crore), Sultan (Rs 614.49 crore), Sanju (Rs 586.85 crore), Padmaavat (Rs 571.98 crore), Tiger Zinda Hai (Rs 564.2 crore) and Dhoom 3 (Rs 556.84 crore)
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
While Saiyaara will continue its steady run at the box office until the arrival of Coolie and War 2, the musical romantic drama is now getting dominated by director Ashwin Kumar's animated venture _Mahavatar Narsimha_.
Despite not going all out with the promotions, Saiyaara garnered unprecedented excitement among the cinegoers. Before the release of the movie, director Mohit Suri spoke about it and told Firstpost, 'I've been inside the studio for the last one month. I have no idea. And unlike the past when people travel from one studio to another, this is everything inhouse at YRF. So I haven't really gone out and met the world outside. Normally, when you are working on other films, you go out for the day; for sound, edit, and VFX. It was different different places.
And just hearing it now, it does feel it does feel very redeeming and validating because when I started off this film, I was quite discouraged by a lot of senior people saying that nobody would be interested in a young love story. Because at that time, larger-than-life films were being made and I just thought that my voice would be lost there when everyone was shouting. So I just went and tried to make a film which is very different from what others were doing. And to me, the fact that people are appreciating that the difference that it's standing out means a lot.'

Are Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson in a fauxmance? Friends reveal the naked truth about their relationship
Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson have been turning heads lately. The co-stars, out promoting The Naked Gun, have reportedly gotten close off-screen too. Their chemistry on-screen sizzled, and now fans are asking if there's something real happening behind the scenes. While both Pamela and Liam are staying tight-lipped about the budding romance, some are calling it a classic Hollywood fauxmance, a PR move to hype the film. But those close to them say that's not the case. A source close to the couple told Page Six, 'It's very sincere how they feel. That is the truth.' They added, 'They're not going to show up on the red carpet and be adorable just to be fake, that's not either of them.' Pamela and Liam first met last summer on the set of The Naked Gun reboot, which was shot in Atlanta. The movie is a remake of the 1988 comedy that originally starred Leslie Nielsen and Priscilla Presley. While they didn't stay in touch for a while after filming, sources say they recently 'rekindled' their bond. During a recent interview, the two played along their romance buzz, even pretending to kiss on the Today show before brushing it off as just a 'joyful experience' on set. At the New York premiere, they posed for photos with their kids, Pam's sons Brandon and Dylan, and Liam's sons Micheál and Daniel. Also read: 'Who is Salman Khan?' A clueless Pamela Anderson charged Rs 2.5 cr for 3 days in Bigg Boss, said Indian clothes made her claustrophobic Liam, now 73, had said he was done with dating, and Pamela, 58, has been through a lot in her love life, married five times and involved in multiple affairs, which ended on a messy note, including with Tommy Lee, Kid Rock, Rick Salomon, and Adil Rami. She's also had a short-lived marriage to her bodyguard Dan Hayhurst and even a rumoured romance with Julian Assange. Despite all, she's rebuilt her life. She now lives quietly in Canada and focuses on a healthy lifestyle. She's also been making big comebacks lately, including her Golden Globes-nominated performance in The Last Showgirl. As for Liam, he gave a major hint about his feelings for her last year when he said, 'I'm madly in love' and called her 'terrific to work with.' Pamela told ET, their connection is 'sincere and loving' and that Liam is a 'good guy.' Friends and family close to Pamela believe Liam is actually the best man she's ever dated, calling him 'a gentleman' and 'very present.' Even Andy Cohen, a close friend of Liam's late wife, Natasha Richardson, has given the couple his blessing. 'She's an independent woman, just like Tash was,' he said on his radio show, adding that the relationship 'just works.' Also read: Liam Neeson, 73, and Pamela Anderson, 58, break silence on romance as dating rumours surface: 'We discovered a silly bone in each other' Pamela recently headlined her Netflix documentary, where she opened up about the trauma she faced growing up. Titled Pamela, a Love Story and her memoir Love, Pamela, the doc mentions several instances of sexual abuse before age 18, including one where she was molested by a 25-year-old when she was just 12. She also revealed the violent nature of her marriage to Tommy Lee, who served jail time for assaulting her. In recent years, Pamela has stayed away from Hollywood drama. Meanwhile, Liam has mostly stayed single since Natasha Richardson's tragic death in a ski accident in 2009. He did have a relationship with PR exec Freya St. Johnston for two years but has kept a low profile since.
