Box Office: Saiyaara enters the Rs 100 crore club in 4 days flat; Monday higher than Friday for Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer
The Day Wise India Net Collections Of Saiyaara Are As Under
Saiyaara Nets Higher Than Opening Day On First Monday; A First For A Film With A Rs 20 Crore Plus Net India Start
Saiyaara is a box office force like none other, in recent memory. We have never had a Rs 20 crore plus net India opener, actually growing in collections on non-Holiday Monday.
It has become the first film featuring debutants to enter the Rs 100 crore club. For it to enter the club in just 4 days is unbelievable. With Saiyaara, the total number of Rs 100 crore plus India net grossers from Bollywood in 2025 stand at 7, the other 6 being Chhaava, Housefull 5, Raid 2, Sitaare Zameen Par, Sky Force and Sikandar.
The bookings are robust for 'Discount Tuesday' with footfalls sure to be higher than Monday. If the collections see a drop on Tuesday, it will likely be due to low average ticket prices. A week one of Rs 160 crore net is certain, and that means the lifetime collections of this year's biggies Housefull 5, Raid 2 and Sitaare Zameen Par will mostly be breached in 7 days flat.
To note, this phenomenon is occuring for a film that was expected to open to Rs 3 - 4 crore, a week before release, with the ceiling being Rs 5 crore. Expectations for the Mohit Suri film increased once the pre-bookings started. But still, a Rs 20 crore plus day one number was something that never crossed anyone's mind. Now, the film is on course for a lifetime number that will be remembered for decades.
International Markets Have Also Got On Board For Saiyaara
The collections of the film being higher on Monday than the opening day is not just an India-wide phenomenon. The international markets have got on board. With Monday bookings in sync with the first Saturday, the romantic-drama is set for a lifetime number of over USD 10 million.

The apartment offers breathtaking views of Dubai's skyline and is part of one of the most prestigious addresses in the world.

If you're eyeing something bigger, a 2-bedroom unit will cost a minimum of Rs. 10.8 crore, with prices soaring to Rs. 20–22 crore or even higher depending on the size, floor level, and view. Some ultra-luxurious properties in the tower command even steeper prices.

KGF Babu in spotlight: Who is Yusuf Sharif? The man flaunting Bollywood stars' Rolls-Royces
NEW DELHI: Realtor, politician, and now tax defaulter, Yusuf Sharif, also known as KGF Babu, is at the centre of controversy, not for his wealth or political ambitions, but for driving Rolls-Royces once owned by Bollywood icons Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan on Bengaluru roads without paying local taxes. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The Karnataka transport department on Wednesday swooped down on Sharif's plush Vasanthnagar residence with records showing he had been using two Maharashtra-registered Rolls-Royce cars in Bengaluru well beyond the one-year period allowed without state road tax. One of them, a Phantom bearing number MH 02 BB 0002, was bought from Amitabh Bachchan. The other, a Rolls-Royce Ghost, came from Aamir Khan and bears registration MH 11 AX 0001. Both cars, now a fixture in Sharif's glitzy collection, were used on Karnataka roads without paying the applicable lifetime road tax, dues that have now cost him Rs 38.3 lakh. The Phantom had already caught the eye of RTO field officials back in 2021 and was briefly impounded. A penalty of Rs 5,500 was collected before the car was released, allegedly on the instructions of senior officials. The issue was quietly buried, until this week. 'This time, we had ample proof,' an RTO official told TOI. 'Traffic surveillance footage and vehicle movement logs clearly showed the cars were being used in the city for extended periods. A notice was issued, and after we briefed Yusuf Sharif on the rules, he cleared the tax dues by cheque the same day.' According to the department, Rs 19.8 lakh was collected for the Phantom, and Rs 18.5 lakh for the Ghost. Sharif, known for his flamboyance and rags-to-riches story that earned him the nickname "KGF Babu", admitted to the lapse but claimed it was unintentional. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now 'I have a passion for buying cars from celebrities,' he said. 'I paid lifetime tax for these vehicles in Maharashtra — Rs 50 lakh for one, Rs 35 lakh for the other. I wasn't aware I had to pay again in Karnataka.' He insisted that the vehicles divide time between Mumbai and Bengaluru, spending about 15 days in each city, and added, 'Officials came to my house without prior notice. They explained the tax rules and I paid the amount immediately. It was a mistake out of ignorance. I appeal to others with out-of-state vehicles to check their dues and settle them.' Sharif's business roots lie in Mumbai, but in Karnataka, he's a known figure in political and real estate circles — his opulence, controversial land deals, and extravagant lifestyle frequently grabbing headlines. This week's raid only brings him back into the spotlight, this time for rolling the red carpet out for Bollywood cars — minus the paperwork.
