The duo, fondly known as TaeKook (a combination of their names Taehyung and Jungkook), went live from a car in Los Angeles. While vibing to music and having fun, the two casually mimicked the viral dance move popularised by 11-year-old Indonesian boy Rayyan Arkan Dhika.

He's a traditional dancer motivating the rowers with his confident moves. Pacu Jalur is not just a rowing competition; it is an annual event… — Taehyung Indonesia 🇮🇩 (@KTHIndonesia) July 16, 2025 Still strapped into their car seats, Jungkook and V moved their arms in sync, mimicking Rayyan's calm, rhythmic hand motions that earned him the title of the 'ultimate aura farmer" on the internet.

Saiyaara Advance Bookings: Ahaan Panday's Film Sells 1.90 Lakh Tickets, Eyes Biggest Debut
Last Updated: Directed by Mohit Suri, Saiyaara tells the story of passionate lovers caught in a whirlwind romance marked by emotional highs and crushing lows. Mohit Suri's Saiyaara, starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is turning out to be a game-changer at the box office. The romantic musical drama, backed by Yash Raj Films, has recorded phenomenal advance booking numbers, becoming the biggest debut launch in over two decades. On its opening day, Saiyaara has sold a whopping 1.90 lakh tickets in top national chains—PVR Inox and Cinepolis—setting the stage for a thunderous Day 1. With a few more hours to go before the first show rolls out, the tally is expected to cross 2 lakh tickets, a staggering feat for any film, let alone one with newcomers. In doing so, Saiyaara has outperformed several star-studded releases in pre-sales. It has already beaten Salman Khan's Sikandar (1.43 lakh tickets), Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5 (94,750), Ajay Devgn's Raid 2 (93,000), and Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par (49,750). The only film ahead of Saiyaara in national chain pre-sales this year is Vicky Kaushal's Chhaava, which sold 2.23 lakh tickets and opened at a whopping Rs 29.50 crore. Based on this momentum, Saiyaara is projected to open in the range of Rs 18–20 crore nett in India. If the spot bookings and walk-in audiences align with the buzz, it could even surpass that mark. Trade experts are already calling it the biggest debut film opening in 25 years. The last time debutants drew such hysteria was back in 2000 with Hrithik Roshan's Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai and Abhishek Bachchan's Refugee. Directed by Mohit Suri, Saiyaara tells the story of passionate lovers caught in a whirlwind romance marked by emotional highs and crushing lows. It boasts a powerful music album by Mithoon, Sachet–Parampara, Vishal Mishra, Faheem Abdullah, Tanishk Bagchi, and Arslan Nizami. All eyes are now on its critical reception and audience word-of-mouth, which will ultimately determine the film's longevity at the box office. Saiyaara releases in theatres tomorrow, July 18.

Singer Palak Muchhal, who attended a special screening of the film, has called it 'pure magic" and praised the debutants for their raw and real performances. Sharing her reaction on social media, Palak wrote, 'Watched Saiyaara last night… and I'm still carrying its emotions in my heart. It's been a while since a film moved me so deeply — Saiyaara is not just a love story, it's a journey of emotion, pain, healing, and timeless connection. A story that truly needed to be told, and told the way it has been." She continued, 'So proud of @mohitsuri — having worked with him, I've seen his passion up close, but what he's created here goes beyond passion… it's pure magic. The storytelling, the screenplay, the way every moment unfolds — it lingers long after the credits roll. And the music… Every note elevates the narrative. A special place in my heart for Dhan, by @mithoon11, which is such a soul-stirring part of the film's heart." Palak also praised the lead pair, calling them 'hands down the most brilliant debutantes I've ever seen. So raw, so real, so powerful." Saiyaara is a romantic musical drama backed by Yash Raj Films. The story follows two passionate lovers navigating euphoric highs and crushing lows as they fight to hold on to their tumultuous bond. It promises classic Mohit Suri elements, intense love, heartbreak, and a stirring musical score. The film's music has already struck a chord with fans, featuring compositions by Mithoon, Faheem Abdullah, Vishal Mishra, Sachet–Parampara, Arslan Nizami, and Tanishk Bagchi. Trade analysts are predicting a sensational start for the film at the box office. Saiyaara has already raked in over Rs 2.6 crore in advance bookings, with more than 12 hours left for pre-sales to close. Industry experts estimate a double-digit opening in the range of Rs 10-12 crore, with optimistic projections touching Rs 15-20 crore. These figures are massive for a film led by debutants, surpassing even Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par, which opened to Rs 11.50 crore just a month ago.
