Saiyaara Box Office Collections Cross Rs.500 Crore Mark

Mohit Suri’s romantic drama Saiyaara, starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has emerged as one of the biggest surprise hits of 2025.

The film has officially crossed the ₹500 crore mark at the global box office in just 18 days, becoming the second Indian film this year to achieve such a feat.

Released on July 18, Saiyaara has not only exceeded expectations but also proven that debut stars can lead a film to massive commercial success.

According to reports, the film’s total gross collection now stands at ₹507 crore worldwide.

Domestically, Saiyaara has earned ₹3008 crore (net), which amounts to around ₹376 crore gross, according to a press release issued by the film's team.

Internationally, the film has performed exceptionally well too, bringing in ₹130 crore from overseas markets. With these figures combined, the film has comfortably crossed the ₹500 crore milestone, placing it just behind Chhaava, which remains the highest-grossing Indian film of 2025 with a collection of ₹807.91 crore .

The film’s sustained performance highlights strong word-of-mouth, repeat viewership, and emotional resonance with audiences, which have helped maintain momentum well beyond its opening week.

What makes Saiyaara’s success even more remarkable is the fact that it featured two debut actors and was made on a relatively modest budget of around ₹60 crore. Unlike many big Bollywood releases, the film didn’t rely on extensive media promotions or interviews.

In fact, Yash Raj Films made a deliberate decision to keep the film’s leads away from the spotlight during the marketing phase, allowing the film to speak for itself. This unconventional strategy, paired with the film’s strong emotional storytelling, seems to have worked in its favour.

In just under three weeks, Saiyaara has transformed from a modest romantic film with debut talent into one of the biggest success stories of the year. With ₹507 crore in global earnings, it stands as proof that powerful storytelling, clever strategy, and genuine audience connection can rival even the most star-studded blockbusters. As the film continues its theatrical run, the industry will be watching closely to see if it can challenge the lifetime earnings of Chhaava and set even more records.
