Saiyaara Box Office Day 12: Ahaan Panday's Debut Earns Rs 9.5 Cr On Tuesday, Eyes Rs 300 Cr
Last Updated: Saiyaara continues its golden run at the box office, collecting Rs 9.5 crore on Day 12. The film nears Rs 300 crore, OTT release now delayed. Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's Saiyaara is showing no signs of slowing down. The romantic drama, directed by Mohit Suri, continues its triumphant box office run by earning Rs 9.50 crore (early estimates) on its second Tuesday, Day 12. The film had collected Rs 9.25 crore on Monday, indicating strong weekday retention. As per early estimates by Sacnilk, the film's total domestic box office collection now stands at a staggering Rs 266 crore. Having crossed the Rs 200 crore mark in just nine days, Saiyaara is now eyeing the Rs 300 crore club—an impressive feat for a film led by newcomers. The film, which released on July 18, 2025, started modestly but quickly gained momentum thanks to strong word-of-mouth and a deeply emotional storyline. It follows the journey of Krish Kapoor, a struggling musician, and Vaani Batra, a soulful poet, as they navigate themes of love, loss, and healing. The chemistry between Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda has been widely praised, marking a successful debut for both actors.

The emotional depth of the film, combined with Mohit Suri's signature storytelling style, has helped Saiyaara emerge as one of 2025's biggest surprises. According to The Times of India, Netflix has acquired the OTT rights for Saiyaara. However, due to its ongoing theatrical success, the digital premiere has been postponed closer to Diwali. This strategic delay is expected to give the film a longer theatrical shelf life and cater to a wider festive audience once it hits streaming platforms. With steady weekday collections and strong weekend potential, Saiyaara is poised for an even bigger box office haul in the coming days. If the current momentum continues, the film could become one of the highest-grossing romantic dramas of all time. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
