MUMBAI: In a cinematic landscape often dominated by established stars, Mohit Suri’s romantic drama Saiyaara is turning out to be the surprise of the year. The film, starring Aneet Padda and Ahaan Panday, defied all expectations to become the highest-grossing Hindi film starring newcomers. Its remarkable performance has critics and industry analysts buzzing, cementing its status as a significant commercial success.
From its initial release, Saiyaara captivated audiences with its heartfelt narrative and the undeniable chemistry between its lead pair. The film’s opening day collections hinted at a promising run, but it was the day two figures that truly signaled a momentous journey at the domestic box office. The sustained audience interest and positive word-of-mouth have translated into impressive numbers, indicating a strong and prolonged presence in theaters.
Going by the numbers, on Saturday, Saiyaara earned Rs 24 crore in India, which is slightly higher than its opening day earnings of Rs 21 crore. As per trade tracker, the total domestic box office collection of the film after two days stands at Rs 45 crore. If the day 2 collection is anything to go by, Saiyaara is in for a momentous run at the domestic box office. Given the current trajectory, it’s most likely to edge past the Rs 50 crore mark on Sunday.
With its domestic box office collection of two days, Saiyaara has already beaten the likes of Rajkummar Rao-starrer Maalik (Rs 23.27 crore), Shahid Kapoor-starrer Deva (Rs 33.97 crore), Kajol-starrer Maa (Rs 38.51 crore), and John Abraham’s The Diplomat (Rs 40.73 crore). It’s most likely to beat the earnings of Anurag Basu’s Metro… In Dino (Rs 48.47 crore) today.
