'Mahavtar Narsimha' dominates over 'Saiyaara', 'Son Of Sardaar 2', 'Dhadak 2' at the box office, collects Rs 15 crore on its second Saturday

It's a busy weekend at the theatres with four movies competing against each other at the moment. While 'Saiyaara' has been ruling at the box office ever since the movie released, this Friday, which is August 1 saw the release of two anticipated sequels - 'Son Of Sardaar 2' and 'Dhadak 2' which stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri. But amidst these three movies, now 'Mahavtar Narsimha' came out of nowhere last week and has now seen incredible growth due to positive word of mouth. On its second Saturday, which is August 2, the movie collected much more than what it made even on first Saturday. So much so, that it is dominating over 'Saiyaara' and even the other two new releases. Mahavtar Narsimha dominates over other releases on Saturday As per early estimates from Sacnilk at Saturday night, 'Mahavtar Narsimha' has collected Rs 15 crore at the box office on its day 9 which is second Saturday. This is huge. It had made only Rs 4.6 crore on its first Saturday. The total collection of the film so far in all languages, is Rs 67.95 crore. It has performed the best in Hindi language. Meanwhile, as per the same website, 'Son Of Sardaar 2' has made Rs 7.50 crore as per early estimates. 'Dhadak 2' made Rs 3.75 crore on Saturday. Meanwhile, 'Saiyaara' has collected Rs 6.35 crore on its day 16. All these are the early estimates on Saturday night. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Thailand: New Container Houses (Prices May Surprise You) Container House | Search ads Search Now Undo The total collection of 'Saiyaara' now stands at Rs 291.35 crore. If the film sees growth on Sunday, it will be able to cross Rs 300 crore or that would happen on Monday. According to Box Office India, Dhadak (2018) earned nearly ₹9 crore nett on its first day, but that's not a fair comparison since it had hugely popular music backing it. Movies like this aren't really about opening-day numbers—they rely more on how they perform in the days that follow. That's very different from a film like Son of Sardaar 2, where a strong day one is absolutely key. But that unfortunately did not happen as there's been low buzz surrounding this Ajay Devgn starrer.

Su From So Karnataka Box Office 2nd Saturday Update: Kannada blockbuster registers biggest day of its run; Set for Rs 60 crore plus finish

Su From So, directed by JP Thuminad and starring Raj B Shetty is on a historic run at the Karnataka box office. The movie is having a kind of run that very few movies enjoy. After an excellent first week of Rs 20.80 crore gross, the movie added Rs 3.80 crore on its second Friday. The second Friday collections were not just higher than the first Friday collections, but they were almost four times the day 1 number. On second Saturday, the estimates for Su From So are an incredible Rs 5.50 crore. The Day Wise Karnataka Gross Collections Of Su From So Are As Under Day Karnataka Gross Collections Week 1 Rs 20.80 crore 2nd Friday Rs 3.80 crore 2nd Saturday Rs 5.50 crore (est) Total Rs 30.10 crore gross in 9 days Su From So's 2nd Weekend In Karnataka Will Be Twice As Big As Its First A Rs 15 crore second weekend is on the cards, and that would mean that the second weekend collections will be more than double of the first weekend collections. The second week will certainly be higher than the first week. The early projections are that Su From So will end up with a lifetime of Rs 60 - 70 crore. For a movie to double its first week numbers is already considered to be excellent, but for it to do three times or more is just phenomenal. Su From So Is Performing Well Despite Strong Local Competition One must not forget that Su From So is playing in theatres when multiple Indian movies are performing well. Saiyaara, Mahavatar Narsimha, Thalaiva Thalaivi and Kingdom are already doing well and Son Of Sardaar 2 and Dhadak 2 have also taken up screens. The future of Indian cinema looks bright with majority audiences preferring content over stars. The films that have recently done well are the films with no big cast. One of them is an animated film that already has a limited market in a country like India. Su From So In Theatres

'Saiyaara' box office day 16: Mohit Suri's film shows strong Saturday surge and growing theatre buzz

Saiyaara continues its impressive box office run, with early estimates placing the day 16 (third Saturday) collection at ₹ 6.35 crore. This brings the total earnings to a formidable ₹ 291.35 crore, as the film edges closer to the ₹ 300 crore milestone. After earning ₹ 107.75 crore in its second week and ₹ 4.5 crore on its third Friday, Saiyaara witnessed a noticeable uptick on Saturday, reflecting growing weekend interest and positive word-of-mouth. Theatre occupancy also showed a strong trend across major cities. Nationally, Saiyaara recorded 34.38% occupancy in evening shows, up from 30.79% in the afternoon and 16.14% in the morning, indicating a steady climb throughout the day. City-wise, Bengaluru led the surge with 58.67% occupancy, followed by Chennai at 48.67%, and Pune at 35.33%. The National Capital Region (NCR) also held firm at 30.67%, while Mumbai stood at 24.33%. Other metros like Hyderabad (31.67%) and Jaipur (32.33%) contributed to the film's momentum. While some cities such as Surat (10%), Bhopal (19.67%), and Kolkata (19%) showed relatively modest numbers, the overall performance across urban centres suggests continued audience engagement. With Sunday yet to come and momentum building, Saiyaara is well on track to surpass ₹ 300 crore in the coming days. The strong Saturday performance has reinforced the film's commercial success, making it one of the top-grossing Hindi releases of the year. Saiyaara has also become the second Indian film of 2025 to cross the ₹ 400-crore mark globally, next only to Chhaava ( ₹ 808 crore). It is now eyeing entry into the prestigious ₹ 500 crore club, possibly by the end of the third weekend. Saiyaara is a romance-drama about Krish Kapoor (Ahaan Panday), a budding musician, and Vaani Batra (Aneet Padda), a shy writer. Through their relationship, the film explores love, loss, and drama.
