Saiyaara Box Office: Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer sings 10 million overseas

Saiyaara topped USD 10 million internationally yesterday on its eleventh day. It did so with another fantastic weekday hold, collecting USD 650K on its second Monday. That's a drop of less than 50 per cent from Sunday. While the summer period usually brings stronger weekday trends, this level of hold remains impressive even within that context. The United Kingdom showcased the strongest hold with a staggering GBP 125K on its second Monday. This is likely the biggest second Monday ever for an Indian film, though it would need verification, in case some film with a holiday may have done better. Regardless of that, the film is looking to speed past the GBP 2 million mark, which is a monumental figure achieved only by fifteen films in history. In fact, the way it is going, it would end up in the top five biggest, maybe even the top three. Other markets also saw robust holds. Australia put up AUD 85K yesterday, higher than its Monday last week. North America saw a sub-50 per cent drop from Sunday as well. The Territorial Breakdown for Saiyaara Overseas Box Office is as follows: Monday takeout has set Saiyaara for a USD 6.50 million second week, which will be around 20 per cent higher than its first week. The film will quite possibly cross the USD 15 million mark before the end of its third week and, with a conventional trend from there on, is looking at a finish somewhere in the high teens. Of course, the film could do better than that, much better. Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani was released in the last week of July, where it grossed USD 4 million over the weekend, USD 725K on Monday and then went on to have unfathomable legs, grossing over USD 20 million. Saiyaara, in the last week of July, which is its second week, has so far performed at a similar level. If it could manage the late legs fraction of RARKPK, it could go over USD 20 million as well.

EXCLUSIVE: NOMAD picks favorite Indian food, opens up on musical inspiration and deep appreciation for fans

With the rising interest in K-pop across India, an increasing number of artists are finding their way to the subcontinent to interact with their admirers and build a greater fanbase. During the finale of the All India K-POP Contest 2025 earlier this month, boy group NOMAD sought their first-ever visit to the country and impressed the fans with their performance! Speaking to us in an exclusive chat just a day after landing in India, the group appeared thoroughly intrigued and interested in all that was going around. Speaking about the high-tensioned and high-pitched people around them, leader DOY shared, 'Firstly, Indian people around us are very energized and passionate so we felt welcomed by them right as we landed.' He added how the members had the opportunity to try out some amazing Indian food, which had them hooked. NOMAD's introduction to Indian cuisine Youngest member Junho spoke about their most anticipated dish, one that even Koreans are crazy about, which was Chicken Makhni (Butter Chicken) and Dal Makhni, the first authentic tastes of which exceeded their expectations. Other members chimed in with their own favorites, including Mango Lassi and Gulabjamun, which they said were right up their alley. The classic Indian Samosa had taken over their sense, making them term it as 'special'. Member ONE revealed how it was a country they hadn't visited before and therefore were able to experience it with a clean slate in their minds, and made them glad to have decided to come. Among the many places they'd like to visit, one of the seven wonders, the Taj Mahal, excited them the most. Talking about their experiences as musicians, DOY shared that the visit to Los Angeles remained as their top pick, owing to the fun and learning-filled time that they had while in the USA. RIVR, mostly quiet throughout so far, perked up on being asked about their fans and recalled how the support made him appreciate them more each time, and work hard to release good content. DOY mentioned how maintaining their thoughts of why the members first began their careers as K-pop stars has been the biggest driving force for the group's unity. Giving a shoutout to some of their most-cherished inspirations, the group dropped some big names, including Park Hyo Shin, as their reason to pursue music. Summing it up, the team added that wanting to make the world a better place to live and provide strength to their listeners via their music is the purpose of dreaming about the idol life. The members reminisced about their debut day of February 28, 2024, when their families and friends cheered for their future, in hopes of seeing the team grow further. Much like their name, NOMAD, they wish to set their unique identity in the musical scene and leave a mark with their actions, much like graffiti. The group continues to live with that thought while working to get better each day.

Farhan Akhtar Endured Freezing Cold In Ladakh While Filming 120 Bahadur, Shot in -10°C

Last Updated: Farhan Akhtar's "120 Bahadur," inspired by Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, was shot in Ladakh at minus 10 degrees. Actor-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar's upcoming film '120 Bahadur" was shot in Ladakh in a spine chilling minus 10 degrees celsius. 'The team shot at around 14,000 feet in Ladakh, and temperatures often dipped to minus 5, even minus 10 degrees on some days," revealed an industry source. The source added: 'The aim was to honour the story with honesty, and Farhan really went all in — physically, mentally, emotionally." Inspired by the life of Major Shaitan Singh Bhati (PVC), 120 Bahadur tells the story of an extraordinary act of courage during the Battle of Rezang La in 1962, where 120 Indian soldiers stood their ground against thousands, defending Ladakh with unimaginable grit. Farhan, who will be seen essaying the role of Major Shaitan Singh Bhati (PVC), underwent a significant transformation for the film, including military-style training and acclimatisation at high altitude. '120 Bahadur"is directed by Razneesh 'Razy' Ghai and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar (Excel Entertainment), and Amit Chandrra (Trigger Happy Studios). The film pays tribute to Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, PVC, and the soldiers of Charlie Company, 13 Kumaon Regiment. Set against the backdrop of the 1962 Indo-Sino War, the film draws inspiration from the legendary Battle of Rezang La, where acts of unparalleled bravery and sacrifice etched their place in history. An Excel Entertainment Production, the film is scheduled to release on November 21. Talking about Farhan, he made his directorial debut with the coming-of-age film Dil Chahta Hai, receiving critical acclaim for portraying realistic modern Indian youth, and winning the National Award for Best Hindi Film. He then directed the war film Lakshya, the action thriller Don and its sequel Don 2. He was last seen on screen as an actor in the 2021 film 'Toofaan," a sports drama by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra. The core plot of the film is based on Dev-starrer Bengali film Chaamp, which itself is based on Moti Nandi's stories— Shiba and Shibar Phire Asha. The film also stars Mrunal Thakur, Paresh Rawal, and Hussain Dalal. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
