In a historic milestone for debutant Ahaan Panday and rising star Aneet Padda, Saiyaara has officially entered the elite Rs. 300 crore club at the domestic box office collecting Rs. 305.50 cr. Achieving the feat on Day 17 of its theatrical run, the romantic drama directed by Mohit Suri now shares the 13th spot on the list of all-time fastest films to reach the Rs. 300 crore mark — tying with Rajkumar Hirani’s PK, which also reached the benchmark in 17 days.
This achievement is particularly noteworthy considering the sheer scale of competition on the list, which includes record-shattering blockbusters like Pushpa 2 – The Rule, Jawan, Animal, and Pathaan, each of which stormed past the Rs. 300 crore mark in under a week. For Saiyaara, a romance-driven narrative headlined by a newcomer, to feature in the same breath as these mega-budget juggernauts is nothing short of extraordinary.
Topping the list is Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2 – The Rule, which took just five days to cross Rs. 300 crore, matching Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, also a five-day entry. Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal and SRK’s Pathaan followed closely behind, each hitting the mark in six days. Horror-comedy sequel Stree 2 and patriotic action epic Gadar 2 both did it in eight days, while Chhaava, 2025’s biggest hit so far with Rs. 600.10 crore lifetime collections, achieved the milestone in 10 days.
Also, ahead of Saiyaara on the list are Baahubali 2 – The Conclusion and KGF Chapter 2, each taking 11 days, followed by Aamir Khan’s Dangal at 13 days. Rajkumar Hirani’s Sanju and Salman Khan’s Tiger Zinda Hai both hit the mark in 16 days.
Now tying with PK, Saiyaara proves that emotionally resonant storytelling and fresh faces can still leave a massive impact on audiences. The film’s gentle pace, evocative soundtrack, and intimate storytelling have resonated with viewers across urban and rural markets alike, creating a sustained word-of-mouth wave that has now translated into box office gold.
More importantly, Saiyaara becomes a career-defining launchpad for Ahaan Panday, whose heartfelt performance and onscreen chemistry with Aneet Padda have been widely praised. Mohit Suri’s deft direction has also been credited with crafting a nostalgic yet contemporary romance that’s appealing to viewers of all ages.
As Saiyaara continues its theatrical run, its position among Bollywood’s biggest commercial triumphs is now sealed — not only as a financial success but as a cultural moment that reminded audiences of the timeless charm of love stories done right
