Saiyaara, the musical romance that has swept the country, doesn't seem to be slowing down. Under the direction of seasoned filmmaker Mohit Suri and starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the movie is not only touching viewers' emotions but also shattering box office records.
Following an incredible first week, the movie continued to rise into its second weekend, officially surpassing the Rs 200 crore milestone, which is uncommon in the 2025 film industry.
As per Sacnilk, On its second Friday, Saiyaara collected a staggering ₹18.50 crore, a figure that already placed it among the top performers of the year. But the true triumph came on Day 9, as early trends suggest the film raked in an additional ₹25.5–₹26.5 crore, marking a spectacular 40% jump in just 24 hours.
According to estimates, Saiyaara earned around ₹26.50 crore net in India on its ninth day. With this, the film’s cumulative net total stands between ₹219.25 crore and ₹220.25 crore, firmly securing its place in the ₹200 crore club. It is now only the second Bollywood film of 2025 to achieve this milestone, following Chhaava. Notably, other major releases such as Sikandar, Sitaare Zameen Par, Raid 2, and Housefull 5 have yet to reach this benchmark.
