Saiyaara earned around Rs 4.50 crore yesterday and currently stands with a total collection of approximately 290 crore read more Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer Saiyaara continued to remain steady at the box office on its 3rd Friday despite the arrival of two prominent sequels in the form of Son of Sardaar 2 & Dhadak 2. The musical romantic drama earned around Rs 4.50 crore yesterday and currently stands with a total collection of approximately 290 crore. It is expected to enter the Rs 300 crore club by tomorrow and become the 2nd film of 2025 to achieve this feat after Vicky Kaushal-Rashmika Mandanna's Chhaava. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The film would have entered the prestigious club by now, but the surprising & humongous response towards Mahavatar Narsimha impacted the collections of the Mohit Suri directorial. _Saiyaara_ will enjoy a free window along with new and holdover releases until the arrival of two biggies, War 2 featuring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR & Kiara Advani and Coolie starring Rajinikanth, Aamir Khan and Nagarjuna, which are releasing during the Independence Day weekend. Not only fans and audiences, Saiyaara garnered praise from celebs like Alia Bhatt, Ranveer Singh, Aamir Khan, Mahesh Babu, Arjun Kapoor, Ameesha Patel, Siddharth Anand, Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Karan Johar, Anurag Basu and Anil Kapoor, among others, for its storyline, direction and performances. Before the release of the movie, director Mohit Suri spoke about Saiyaara's comparison with Aashiqui 2 in an interview with Firstpost. He said, 'When I made Zeher, they said it looked like Murder. When I made Ek Villain, they said it looked like Murder 2. When I made Malang, they said it looked like Ek Villain. When I made Aashiqui 2, they said it looked like Woh Lame and Rockstar. So I think when I go ahead and make my next film, they'll say it looks like Saiyaara. I think when they're comparing it to my own work rather than somebody else's, it's good.'

Exclusive! Genelia Deshmukh on the role of South cinema in shaping her career and her thoughts on love stories
Genelia Deshmukh After over a decade of consciously stepping back from the spotlight following the 2012 release of Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya to focus on family life, Genelia Deshmukh is embracing a new chapter — one shaped by motherhood, maturity, and a rekindled love for cinema. In a conversation with BT, the actress, who was recently seen in Sitaare Zameen Par, opens up about evolving with time, the role of South cinema in shaping her career, and why mature roles need more screen time. 'Riteish and I continue to do things that we always enjoyed doing together' Genelia, who has been married to Riteish Deshmukh for 13 years, says marriage evolves with time. She shares, 'A lot changes post marriage. People forget that you're going to change at 30, 40 and 50. You're not going to be 20 all your life, and I think that's the issue in most relationships. You expect the person to stay the way they were at 16. Riteish and I know we aren't in our 20s, but we continue to do things that we always enjoyed doing together. We liked going out for dinners a lot, but with children around, it gets tough. So, once a week, we go to a coffee shop, hold hands and talk. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like She Was The Dream Girl In The 1980s, Here She Is Now. Boite A Scoop Undo That's our idea of romance.' 'Earlier, the perception was that Bollywood dropouts make it big in the South' Today, pan-India films are seeing actors from Bollywood being cast alongside South actors. Genelia, who made her film debut in 2003 with Tujhe Meri Kasam, did South films from the early days of her career. About the current pan-India trend, she says, 'I don't know why it took so long. I did it very early in my career, and I did it with pride. I just wanted to do good films; it was never about pitching one above the other. Earlier, the perception was that Bollywood dropouts make it big in the South. I've done some of my best work there. I thought my first film would be my last, and then I would take up a 9-5 job. But then I got a lot of work in the South and started falling in love with acting because of South cinema.' Talking about her break from movies, she says, 'During the last 10 years, I did special appearances whenever my friends asked me to. I also did Trial Period, which was an OTT project and Mister Mummy. I am happy that a film like Sitaare Zameen Par came my way.' 'I'm a different person now, but I still have that madness in me' Genelia admits that this phase of her career feels different from her early years in the industry. 'I'm a different person now, but I still have that madness in me. I'll always want to keep the child in me alive. At the start of your career, you have to make sure you do things that really work. Now, I want to do a horror film. I want to do action. It all depends on what filmmakers are writing and what you are being offered,' she says. ' Love stories aren't just for the young' The actress is hopeful the industry keeps pace with changing narratives and embraces more mature female characters. She says, 'I wish we would write more stories about women who are in their 30s, 40s or 50s. There are so many dynamics to that, which is interesting. Love stories aren't just for the young. Why isn't there a love story of a 30-year-old girl or a single mother? Love doesn't happen only when you are in college. I don't think I could play a good mom on screen if I weren't a mom in real life. I think you bring nuances to the screen when you actually live it. Which is why I say that actors should be cast as per the demand of the role and not because of their Instagram following or because they are number one, two or three.'
