Saiyaara box office collection day 4: Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda's debut crosses Rs 100 cr mark in 4 days; inches away from surpassing Salman Khan's Sikandar
The Mohit Suri directorial has been receiving praise from all quarters, with audience reaction videos from theatres going viral on social media. The film began its box office journey on Friday, collecting Rs 21.5 crore. It saw a 20% and 37% jump in its collections on Saturday and Sunday, earning Rs 26 crore and Rs 35.75 crore respectively. With a strong opening and an even better weekend, the film surpassed the total lifetime collections of Alia Bhatt and Ahaan Panday's cousin Ananya Panday's debut films Student Of The Year 1 and 2 within just three days of its release.
On Monday, its fourth day in theatres, Saiyaara witnessed a slight dip, earning Rs 22.5 crore. Though the Monday collection saw a 37% drop compared to Sunday, the film still recorded strong numbers for a weekday. It needs to be noted that Saiyaara's collections on Monday were higher than Friday, which is an indicator for a strong film. The film recorded an overall 41.87% Hindi occupancy, with the highest — 59.47% — during night shows on Monday.
Saiyaara has surpassed the collections of several big-ticket Hindi films. It has climbed to the 7th spot on the list of the highest-earning Hindi films of 2025. The film outperformed the lifetime domestic collection of Akshay Kumar and Ananya Panday's Kesari Chapter 2, which stood at Rs 92.53 crore. It also beat Sunny Deol-starrer Jaat, which minted Rs 88.26 crore in India. Saiyaara is now poised to surpass Salman Khan's Sikandar, which collected Rs 110.1 crore in domestic earnings.
At a time when audiences were craving a good romance film, Saiyaara delivered. It has outperformed many recent romantic releases by a significant margin. For instance, Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh's Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani collected Rs 52.92 crore in its first four days — far below Saiyaara's Rs 105.9 crore. Similarly, Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon's Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya earned Rs 30.75 crore and Ranbir Kapoor's Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar minted Rs 53.16 crore in the same time frame.

Who are Saiyaara singers Faheem and Arslan? Kashmiri engineer who quit job, came to Mumbai for 15 days, had planned to go back but...
Saiyaara is steadily climbing the ladder of success at the box office. Not only is the film performing well, but its music is also being hailed as a blockbuster. Mohit Suri's direction, along with the performances of Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda, has helped the film cross Rs 150 crore. Beyond the acting and storyline, what's truly winning hearts is the film's soulful music – the biggest reason behind its success. While audiences are loving all the songs, the title track of Saiyaara is leaving a particularly strong impression. Fans have been eagerly trying to find out the voice behind this beautiful track. Who is the singer of Saiyaara song? The title track of Saiyaara has been sung by Faheem Abdullah. Faheem hails from Kashmir and composed the song along with his longtime friend Arslan Nizami. Both of them moved to Mumbai to pursue their musical careers, as their songs were popular in Kashmir but they remained unknown outside the region. Arslan was working as a civil engineer near Leh, he wanted to do a full time in music composing and songwriting. Arslan and Faheem have collaborated several times for Kashmiri songs. They were popular in Kashmir but wanted to be popular outside the state. While talking to Hindustan Times, Arslan said, 'I always used to write and pen down songs. One day, I spoke to Faheem (his collaborator), saying 'Hamara music baahar pahunch nahi raha hai' (our music is not going out). Someone needs to get out and do that'. 'The same day, I resigned from my job and went to Faheem and said, 'Let's do it.' I really wanted to give our music a chance,' he adds. 'The most difficult thing was to explain this to my parents. They are Kashmiri parents, who believe in stability and a good job.' Faheem and Arslan went to Mumbai for 15 days and then… Faheem and Arslan pooled their savings and headed to Mumbai to try their luck. They initially planned to stay for just 15 days. 'We realized we only had enough money to survive for 14 days in Mumbai, so we gave ourselves those 14 days in the city,' Faheem recalled. On the 13th day of their stay, they met composer Tanishk Bagchi – and soon after, they were brought on board to compose the title track of Saiyaara. It was a pinch-me moment for them as they never thought of signing a film. Faheem said, 'To be able to do music itself is a privilege. We never thought we'd ever do music for a film. That was never something we consciously thought about until we got that call.'

This 2-hour 10-minute film beats Vicky Kaushal starrer Chhaava, earns Rs 90 crore in a budget of Rs 7 crore, movie is…, lead actors are…
In a year dominated by big-budget blockbusters, a modestly budgeted film has quietly outshone them all in terms of profitability. While titles like 'Chhaava,' 'Housefull 5,' and 'Sitaare Zameen Par' garnered significant attention, another film, made with a fraction of their budgets, has emerged as the most profitable Indian movie of 2025. Which movie is this? That film is Tourist Family, a Tamil-language comedy-drama directed by debutant Abishan Jeevinth. Produced on a modest budget of Rs 7 crore, the movie has grossed over Rs 90 crore worldwide, achieving an impressive 1200% return on investment. This remarkable feat places it ahead of other major releases, including Chhaava, which, despite its Rs 130 crore budget and Rs 808 crore earnings, achieved an 800% profit margin. What is the storyline of Tourist Family? Tourist Family stars M. Sasikumar and Simran and tells poignant story of Sri Lankan Tamil family migrating to India post-COVID-19 in search of a better life. The narrative delves into their struggles adapting to a new culture, language barriers, and economic hardships. The film's heartfelt storytelling and relatable themes resonated deeply with audiences, leading to its box office success. The film's success is further underscored by its performance relative to other major releases.
