After enjoying a sensational opening weekend, debutants Ahaan Panday & Aneet Padda’s Saiyaara remained super-strong on its first Monday. In fact, the love story earned more than its first day at the box office.
With the whopping collection of Rs 24.25 crore on its 4th day, Saiyaara emerged as the second-highest first Monday grosser of the year, beating Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava, Akshay Kumar’s Housefull 5, Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par and Ajay Devgn’s _Raid 2_ among others. While Salman Khan’s _Sikandar_ , holds the first position, it was released on Sunday, and there the mentioned collection came on its 2nd day.
Highest 1st Monday grossers of 2025
Sikandar: Rs 28.50 crore (Sunday release)
Saiyaara: Rs 24.25 crore
Chhaava: Rs 24.10 crore
Housefull 5: Rs 10 crore
Sitaare Zameen Par: Rs 8.50 crore
Sky Force: 8.10 crore
The film has crossed the Rs 100 crore mark, and with no Hindi competition for the movie in the coming weekend, except for the Marvel biggie, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, it will be interesting to see how Saiyaara performs at the ticket windows in its second week.
It’s giving soulmates in every universe 🤌

Before the release of the movie, director Mohit Suri spoke about Saiyaara’s comparison with Aashiqui 2 in an interview with Firstpost. He said, “When I made Zeher, they said it looked like Murder. When I made Ek Villain, they said it looked like Murder 2. When I made Malang, they said it looked like Ek Villain. When I made Aashiqui 2, they said it looked like Woh Lame and Rockstar. So I think when I go ahead and make my next film, they’ll say it looks like Saiyaara. I think when they’re comparing it to my own work rather than somebody else’s, it’s good.”
