Saiyaara box office collection day 5: Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda's film earns Rs 132 cr; beats Salman Khan's Sikandar, eyes Akshay Kumar and Aamir Khan's record
Mohit Suri's romantic drama Saiyaara, starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is in no mood to slow down at the domestic box office. After scoring the biggest opening for an Indian film starring newcomers, Saiyaara has now crossed the Rs 100 crore mark and posed as a formidable threat to the films of superstars like Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar. On day 5, its first Tuesday, Saiyaara even registered a slight growth from day 4, its first Monday at the domestic box office. The film earned Rs 25 crore on Tuesday, a marginal hike from its Monday earnings of Rs 24 crore. That was a drop from the massive Sunday (day 3) collection of Rs 35.75 crore, a major rise from its Saturday (day 2) earnings of Rs 26 crore, a further spike from its historic opening day collection of Rs 21.5 crore. As per Sacnilk, the current box office collection of Saiyaara in India, after five days, stands at Rs 132.25 crore. In the process, Saiyaara has not become the rare film with newcomers to enter the Rs 100 crore club, but also surpassed the box office collections of a previous Rs 100 crore club member of this year — AR Murugadoss' action thriller Sikandar, starring Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna, which collected Rs 129.95 crore in India. Saiyaara's next target is to surpass Akshay Kumar's Sky Force, which earned Rs 134.93 crore. The film is most likely to achieve that feat today. Given its current trajectory, it may very well also challenge other members of the Rs 100 crore club from this year, including Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par (Rs 164.74 crore), Ajay Devgn's Raid 2 (Rs 179.30 crore), and Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5 (Rs 198.41 crore). This past weekend, Saiyaara also registered the highest opening for a romantic film ever by grossing Rs 119 crore in the first three days, as per the production house, Aditya Chopra's Yash Raj Films. The movie, which marks Panday's big screen debut and a critically-praised turn for Padda, who previously featured in Big Girls Don't Cry and Kajol-starrer Salaam Venky, earned Rs 84 crore in India and brought in Rs 17.25 from international markets over the opening weekend. The film's impressive three-day run at the box office has beaten lifetime collection of other debuts of star kids like Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan's Student of the Year (2012), and Jahnvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khattar's Dhadak (2018), which earned Rs 70 crore and Rs 73 crore (lifetime) respectively. Ahaan is the cousin of actor Ananya Panday and the nephew of actor Chunky Panday. Also Read: Saiyaara just fixed everything Bollywood broke about love It is also Suri's highest opening among his other films — Ek Villain earned Rs 16 crore on day 1, Aashiqui 2 made over Rs 6 crore, and Murder 2 earned almost Rs 7 crore on the first day of their release. Yash Raj Films have requested exhibitors to not hike ticket prices in order to keep them accessible for the youth supporting the film. The production house had also previously decided that Pandey and Padda will not engage in promotions of the film.

Directed by Mohit Suri and starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the film has become an unstoppable force at the Indian box office. Released on Friday, the romantic drama has not only surpassed expectations but also smashed records typically reserved for big-budget star-led releases. According to Sacnilk, Saiyaara collected Rs 23.94 crore on its first Tuesday, taking the total to a whopping Rs 131.19 crore in just five days. This is particularly impressive as weekday collections tend to drop. Remarkably, Tuesday's earnings were even higher than its opening day, which stood at Rs 21.5 crore. The film recorded a 46.39% Hindi occupancy on Tuesday, indicating strong word-of-mouth and consistent footfalls. With this, Saiyaara has officially beaten the India lifetime box office collection of Salman Khan's Sikandar, which had earned Rs 110.1 crore.

The film blends music, romance, and heartbreak in a style reminiscent of Mohit Suri's earlier hits like Aashiqui 2 and Ek Villain. One of the key drivers of the film's success has been its music, especially the title track sung by Faheem Abdullah, which has made it to Spotify's Global Top 50 charts. The film has also received endorsements from several Bollywood stars. Alia Bhatt, Shraddha Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, and Ranveer Singh praised Saiyaara on their social media handles, boosting its visibility.
