Bollywood has found its latest blockbuster in Saiyaara, a romantic drama that has taken the industry by storm. Directed by Mohit Suri and featuring newcomers Ahana Panday and Aneet Padda in their debut roles, the film has raced into the Rs.100 crore club within just 4 days of release, leaving behind a trail of stunned audiences and shattered records.

What’s driving the frenzy? Everything, it seems. The chemistry between the leads, a soul-stirring soundtrack, Suri’s signature emotional storytelling, and a nationwide buzz that refuses to die down. But the biggest surprise came on Monday, traditionally a slow day for most releases, when Saiyaara collected a staggering Rs. 24.25 crore nett.

That’s higher than its Friday opening and a figure that eclipses Monday collections of several recent blockbusters, including Housefull 5, Raid 2, Sitaare Zameen Par, and even the highly successful Chhaava.

With this, Saiyaara has not only proven its staying power but has also become the highest-grossing Hindi film of 2025 so far. Even more impressively, it has done so with debutants in the lead, making it the biggest Monday ever for a film led by a first-time hero.

The audience response has been nothing short of electric. Packed cinemas, repeat viewings, and trending hashtags across social media have fueled a momentum that shows no sign of slowing down. Trade analysts are calling it one of the most sensational runs of the year, a box office rampage that caught even the most seasoned observers off guard.

From a strong opening weekend to a record-breaking Monday, Saiyaara has shown that it’s not just a one-week wonder. It’s a full-fledged phenomenon. The film is now on track to set even bigger milestones in the days ahead, with fans and the film industry alike watching closely to see how far it can go.

As Saiyaara continues its historic run, one thing is clear – the film has captured the nation’s heart, and this is just the beginning.
