Mohit Suri’s latest cinematic triumph, Saiyaara, continues its breathtaking run at the box office, officially crossing the coveted Rs. 200 crore mark in global earnings. As of now, the Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer has amassed a staggering Rs. 225.73 crore worldwide—an extraordinary feat for a film led by two debutants.
According to official figures, Saiyaara has collected Rs. 155.75 crore nett in India, which translates to a gross of Rs. 188.67 crore domestically. Overseas, the film has performed exceptionally well too, adding another Rs. 37.06 crore to its tally. This brings the total worldwide gross to Rs. 225.73 crore, solidifying Saiyaara’s position as one of the biggest success stories of 2025.
What makes this achievement especially remarkable is the film’s origin: a romance helmed by newcomers, released without the cushion of a festival holiday or the backing of a franchise. Director Mohit Suri, best known for hits like Aashiqui 2 and Ek Villain, has once again tapped into the zeitgeist with a soulful love story that is finding resonance not just in India, but globally.
The film’s meteoric rise has been fuelled by several factors. The fresh pairing of Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda has been widely appreciated for its chemistry and emotional authenticity. The music, too, has played a crucial role—dominating streaming charts and becoming an anthem for this generation. The Saiyaara title track alone has broken multiple records, including becoming the most-streamed Bollywood song in a single day on Spotify India.
Critics and trade analysts alike have pointed out how Saiyaara has redefined what success can look like in the post-pandemic entertainment landscape. By betting on new faces and a genre (romantic drama) that many had prematurely written off, Yash Raj Films and Mohit Suri have not only delivered a blockbuster but also reignited faith in heartfelt storytelling.
As the film enters its third week with strong weekday holds and no major competitors in sight, Saiyaara is poised to stretch its legs even further. With momentum on its side and continued support from audiences across age groups, it wouldn’t be surprising if the film inches closer to the Rs. 250 crore club in the coming days.
In an industry increasingly dominated by CGI-laden spectacles and big-banner franchises, Saiyaara’s success is a testament to the timeless power of love, music, and genuine cinematic emotion.
