3 Aug
Summary
- Saiyaara sees 40% jump on day 16 despite strong competition
- Film to officially enter 300 crore club, a first for a Bollywood romantic drama
- Most profitable Bollywood film, second only to Su From So

As of August 3rd, 2025, the romantic musical drama Saiyaara, directed by Mohit Suri and starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has continued to showcase impressive growth at the box office despite facing strong competition from other releases.
In the last 24 hours, Saiyaara witnessed a remarkable 40% jump in its collections, adding 7 crores to its overall kitty. This surge has propelled the film's net collection in India to a staggering 297.25 crores, and it is poised to officially enter the prestigious 300 crore club today, becoming the first-ever Bollywood romantic drama to achieve this milestone.
Saiyaara's remarkable performance is even more impressive considering the competition it has faced from the likes of Dhadak 2 and Son Of Sardaar 2, both of which have the advantage of being sequels. Additionally, the Hindi film Mahavatar Narsimha has been dominating the market in the Hindi belt. Despite these challenges, Saiyaara has managed to outshine its rivals and cement its position as a true box office juggernaut.
With a budget of just 45 crores, Saiyaara has already gained the coveted "super-duper hit" verdict, boasting an impressive return of 560.55% in just 16 days. This remarkable achievement has made Saiyaara the most profitable Bollywood film to date, surpassing even the blockbuster Su From So, which had a return of 878.33%.
