Summary
- Saiyaara crosses ₹500 crore worldwide, Son of Sardaar 2 postponed to August 1
- Mrunal Thakur supports delay, says they want to "celebrate Saiyaara"
- Son of Sardaar 2 and Dhadak 2 release on same date, August 1

As of August 9, 2025, the Mohit Suri-directed film Saiyaara has been enjoying record-breaking success at the box office since its release on July 18. The film's worldwide collection has now exceeded ₹500 crore, making it a major hit.
This success has led to the postponement of the release of another highly anticipated film, Son of Sardaar 2, which was initially scheduled to hit theaters on July 25 but has now been pushed to August 1. The film, directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, stars Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur in the lead roles.
Mrunal Thakur has now addressed the delay, expressing her support for the decision. She stated that if a film like Saiyaara is doing so well, they want to "give it its due love and recognition." Thakur added that she is "so happy and proud" of the newcomers, Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, who star in Saiyaara.
Sharing the same release date as Son of Sardaar 2 is the Shazia Iqbal-directed film Dhadak 2, featuring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri. The movie is a spiritual sequel to the 2018 romantic drama Dhadak.
As the industry celebrates the success of Saiyaara and adjusts the release calendar to accommodate it, the coming weeks promise an exciting clash at the box office as these highly anticipated films battle it out for audience attention.
