Mohit Suri, Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's ‘Saiyaara' survives the box office storm of Rajinikanth's ‘Coolie' and Hrithik Roshan's ‘War 2', mints Rs 1.9 crore in last four days

Mohit Suri's romantic drama 'Saiyaara,' starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has impressively grossed approximately Rs 325.37 crore in 31 days. Despite facing competition from Rajinikanth's 'Coolie' and Hrithik Roshan's 'War 2,' the film has maintained a steady performance. 'Saiyaara' added Rs 1.9 crore in its fifth week, demonstrating its audience loyalty and resilience at the box office. Mohit Suri 's romantic drama Saiyaara, starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda , has quietly managed to carve a niche for itself at the box office despite facing two of the year's biggest juggernauts Rajinikanth 's Coolie and Hrithik Roshan 's War 2. After completing 31 days in cinemas, Saiyaara has collected a net total of around Rs 324.50 crore, powered by a strong opening and respectable holds in its first four weeks. However, the real test for the film began mid-August, when two mega releases hit theatres On 14th August, Coolie and War 2 clashed at the box office and took away most of the screens from Saiyaara thereby, limiting its reach and pushing it into a survival battle. Yet, the film has held its ground remarkably well. In the last four days (Day 28 to Day 31), Saiyaara still managed to add Rs 1.90 crore to its total Rs 20 lakh on Day 28, Rs 50 lakh on Day 29, Rs 57 lakh on Day 30, and Rs 63 lakh on Day 31. For a month-old film running against two of the biggest pan-India blockbusters of the year, these figures are a testimony to the loyalty of its audience. The film opened to Week 1 total of Rs 172.75 crore, and in the second week it added another Rs 107.75 crore to its kitty. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The 5 Books Warren Buffett Recommends You To Read in 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Week 3 major drop in collection as it earned only Rs 28.25 crore in Week 3 and Week 4 stood at Rs 14.05 crore in Week 4. Still, the fact that the film continues to earn in its fifth week despite being squeezed out of prime showtimes is a huge achievement. The arrival of Coolie and War 2 undeniably dealt a blow to Saiyaara's box office momentum. Trade reports suggest that the film lost major screens overnight, with most cinemas preferring to allot maximum screens to the big-ticket actioners. But Saiyaara's relatively modest budget, its strong music album, and the emotional connect of its love story allowed it to hold on to a steady audience base. With its current total and steady trickle of collections, Saiyaara is expected to finish its lifetime run in the range of Rs 330 crore net, an exceptional number for a film led by a debutant. More importantly, the film's resilience against the might of Coolie and War 2 makes its performance all the more commendable.

'Coolie': Rajinikanth's film to achieve THIS mark for a break-even, surpasses 300 crore in 4 days

'Coolie' had a grand release in theaters worldwide on August 14 and has created great anticipation among fans. Being the first film to feature superstar Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj together, the film has become a festive celebration in theaters. The directorship of Lokesh Kanagaraj, who has given blockbuster films like 'Kaithi', 'Master', 'Vikram', and 'Leo' has also impressed the fans. The intense trailer that was released before the release further increased the expectations for the film. But the film failed to satisfy fans, and the action drama is receiving mixed reviews. Need Rs. 600 crore for break-even However, 'Coolie' didn't fail to open big, and the film officially grossed Rs 151 crore globally on the opening day to set a new record for a Tamil film. But the following day collections of the film have fallen highly, and the film reportedly grossed around Rs 310 crore globally at the end of the 4 day first weekend. According to trade expert Ramesh Bala, 'Coolie' needs to gross at least Rs. 600 crore worldwide to achieve the breakeven mark. The chance seems to be fading as the film continues to receive mixed reviews, and the box office collection on weekdays will decide the film's future. Trade circles see chances of repeating 'Jailer' success In Tamil cinema, '2.0' (2018) had previously set a record of Rs. 800 crore, which is still unbroken. After that, 'Jailer' (2023) starring Rajinikanth was a hit, collecting Rs. 600 crore. So, trade sources believe that 'Coolie' has a good chance of achieving the same status. It is estimated that this film could also become a profitable venture for everyone commercially. A gangster drama on gold smuggling Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, this gangster drama follows a retired gang leader as he reconciles with old enemies. The film also reveals the darker side of the world of gold smuggling. Along with Rajinikanth, the film stars Shruti Haasan, Nagarjuna, Upendra, and Shobin Shahir. Aamir Khan makes a special appearance. Anirudh Ravichander has composed the music. "Get the latest news updates on Times of India, including reviews of the movie Coolie and War 2 ."
