Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 23: Ahaan Panday And Aneet Padda's Film Sees Growth
Mohit Suri's latest offering, Saiyaara, hit the theatres on July 18. The film, which marked the Bollywood debut of Ananya Panday's cousin Ahaan Panday, also featured Aneet Padda in the lead role.
On its fourth Saturday, Saiyaara witnessed growth in its box office collections thanks to the Raksha Bandhan holiday. The film minted Rs 3.35 crore at the box office. The total collection of the romance drama now stands at Rs 314.10 crore, reported Sacnilk.
Saiyaara outperformed Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri starrer Dhadak 2, which minted only Rs 1.4 crore on its second Saturday. The film released on August 1 in theatres, two weeks after Saiyaara.
Currently, Saiyaara is facing tough competition from Ajay Devgn's Son of Sardaar 2. The film earned Rs 4 crore on August 9, as per a report in Sacnilk.
Saiyaara has emerged as the second-highest-grossing film of the year after Vicky Kaushal's Chhaava. It has also set the record for being one of the highest-grossing opening weekends of the year. At the global box office, the romance drama has crossed the Rs 500 crore mark.
Talking about Saiyaara 's domestic collection, trade analyst Taran Adarsh stated that he doesn't see the film crossing the Rs 500 crore mark in India. In a conversation with NDTV, he said, "No, I think this is the maximum. But then this is also a huge achievement for a film with newcomers."
Taran added, "Saiyaara has rewritten all records. And of course, if you look at the collection, it is the biggest opener, biggest grosser for a film starring newcomers. It's crossed the 300 crore mark, which is a first for a film starring new faces. Sharing the limelight with such biggies is unimaginable. Before the release, I'm sure a lot of people did not think this movie would work. But then the box office speaks for itself."
Produced by Yash Raj Films, Saiyaara deals with love, loss, and heartbreak in a poignant way. The film features Ahaan Pandey as Krish Kapoor, a struggling musician, alongside Aneet Padda as Vaani Batra, a young writer diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease.

Neil Nitin Mukesh says he is still struggling to find work, nepotism ‘never helped' him: ‘I draw inspiration from actors like Shah Rukh Khan, Kartik Aaryan'
Actor Neil Nitin Mukesh, who was last seen in the Jio Hotstar musical drama series Hai Junoon, recently appeared on SCREEN's 'Dear Me…' Season 2. While Neil spoke about his amazing childhood and working closely on film sets, he also recalled his days as a child actor. Opening up about his debut and film choices, he also shared his take on nepotism, noting that the 'privilege' of hailing from a film family has not helped him at all. The actor shared, 'I don't endorse that word (nepotism) at all. A few might be privileged, yes. But there are many, including me, who have had to work their way up. I have had the privilege of being born and brought up in the film fraternity, but my struggle nullifies that word for me. It never helped me; I am still struggling to find my next job. It changes the perception, yes. But when it comes to work, nobody has, however, supported Mukesh ji or Nitin Mukesh ji or me in that front. Three generations had enough struggles. We've worked very hard all our lives to sustain our craft and put food on our table, and nothing else.' Also Read: 'Stars get 11th Rs 100 crore budget film even after 10 flops,' says Neil Nitin Mukesh: 'We are told your career is over after two flops' 'So I don't agree with that. Besides, it is also about talent. If you have it, you will make it; and if you don't, no matter how many times you make a film or give that actor an opportunity, he will not stand out or sustain. The current generation of stars… look at Shah Rukh Khan sir, isn't he the benchmark? Isn't he the idol of not just being the biggest superstar in the world, but also someone who we all look up to as an outsider who came and conquered? We all draw inspiration, even I do, from actors like Shah Rukh sir, or Kartik Aaryan, who hails not from a film family. He has such a simple and nice family. I love his relationship with his mother and father; it's very refreshing to see that,' Neil further added. A post shared by JioHotstar (@jiohotstar) He also shared how nepotism, as a term, is used as an excuse by many. The Johnny Gaddaar actor explained, 'When we use this word, we are handicapping all young actors who don't want to fight or don't have the patience; we give them this one word as an excuse. I think that the word 'nepotism' is used mainly as an excuse for those who don't have it in them, or the patience to struggle and fight for their conviction towards their craft. It's a big handicap; otherwise, today the conversations are that 'he got a chance, he is a lucky man', or 'his father or family does this', but what are you doing? By thinking like this, you won't grow. You need to remove this and think about how you can make your name. Manoj Bajpayee, Irrfan Khan, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Jaideep Ahlawat, Pankaj Tripathi — they are such brilliant actors, my favorites, they never came through nepotism.' Neil Nitin Mukesh is the grandson of singer Mukesh and son of playback singer Nitin Mukesh. He made his acting debut as a child actor in Vijay in 1988, where he played the role of young Rishi Kapoor. His full-fledged acting debut happened in 2007 with Johnny Gaddar. Nawaz Kochra is an enthusiastic entertainment journalistic for the last 9 years, he has been a known face and successfully worked with some big publications. At Nawaz majorly covers TV and OTT and also does video interviews. Having the best conversations with celebrities is what Nawaz loves. ... Read More
