Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 7: Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda's blockbuster shatters records, aims for Rs 200 crore
Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 7: The film that is making Gen-Z weep inconsolably in the theatres just hit its first minor snag of its theatrical run. For the first time since its release, Saiyaara made less than Rs 20 crore in a day, and yet the numbers are encouraging enough to suggest another strong weekend haul is around the corner. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the Mohit Suri film made Rs 18.75 crore net on day 7, bringing the net domestic collection to Rs 172.5 crore. The fact that Saiyaara's lowest-earning day is almost double or, in some cases, triple what recent films like Kesari 2 or Metro In Dino were averaging, is truly remarkable. The film maintained a solid occupancy rate throughout the day, with the average coming out at 31.43%. The morning shows began with 19.74% occupancy, and it quickly increased to 33.08%. Evening shows continued the trend with 32.81% occupancy, and the night shows were the most successful with an occupancy rate of 40.08%. The film has now surpassed Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par (164.74 cr) and is right on the tail of Ajay Devgn's Raid 2 (179.3 cr), which it will surpass over the next day. The next on the list would be the multi-starrer Housefull 5 (198.41 cr), and two new faces of the industry earning more than a franchise film that features the biggest stars of the industry is truly the stuff of dreams. ALSO READ: Anupam Kher still hasn't paid his actors and financers after Rs 50 crore Tanvi the Great underperforms with under Rs 2 crore amid Saiyaara wave It's likely that the Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda-starrer is going to hit the Rs 200 crore mark very soon. While Aneet has some acting gigs under her belt, this is Ahaan's debut, and the new kid on the block has now delivered a more successful debut than Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, and Sidharth Malhotra with Student of the Year (70 cr), and his cousin Ananya Panday with Student of the Year 2. This is the most successful debut since Hrithik Roshan's Kaho Na Pyaar Hai, The strategies that YRF planned to market this story, its treatment, and its promotion, all of it seems to be working. The Fantastic Four: First Steps won't make much of a dent in the collections of the film, and with Son of Sardaar 2 delaying its release to August 1, Saiyaara has an open run. Films by big studios often lose steam after a few days if the story fails to make an impact, even if the cast includes megastars. Saiyaara is proof that word of mouth, an engaging story, and just the right amount of promotion can still do wonders for any film.

Hari Hara Veera Mallu box office collection Day 1: Pawan Kalyan-starrer earns Rs 44.2 crore despite mediocre reactions, falls short of Ram Charan's Game Changer
Hari Hara Veera Mallu box office collection Day 1: After many delays, the Pawan Kalyan-starrer Hari Hara Veera Mallu was released in the theatres on Thursday. While the audience's reactions to the film haven't been positive, it has had a strong opening at the box office. The film earned Rs 12.7 crore via previews on Wednesday, and on the release day, it earned Rs 31.5 crore, taking the nett domestic opening figure to Rs 44.2 crore, as per industry tracker Sacnilk. Pawan Kalyan's film hasn't received promising reviews but on the first day, it witnessed approximately 57 percent occupancy in Telugu-speaking regions. In Hyderabad, the film had around 1000 shows with almost 66 percent occupancy. Bengaluru saw around 560 shows with approximately 38 percent occupancy and in Visakhapatnam, there were around 364 shows with approximately 63 percent occupancy. It also released in Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada but had very few shows in these languages. While the opening numbers sound quite promising, Pawan Kalyan's last three films had similar figures on their respective opening days but all of them crashed shortly afterwards. His 2023 film Bro opened at Rs 30 crore but could only make Rs 83 crore at the domestic box office. His 2022 release Bheemla Nayak opened at Rs 37.15 crore and finished its theatrical run at Rs 112 crore. And his 2021 release, Vakeel Saab, opened at Rs 40 crore but managed to make Rs 109 crore in the domestic market. With the mediocre reviews that Hari Hara Veera Mallu has received, it looks like the film's collections might experience a dip sooner than expected.
