, the film broke fresh ground for a debutant-led project in India.Trade data aggregator Sacnik.com reports that Saiyaara sold over 45,000 tickets across leading cinema chains—PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis—within the first 24 hours of pre-sales alone. On release day, the total count jumped to 195,000 tickets sold at these chains, narrowly trailing behind Vicky Kaushal’s epic saga Chhaava, which registered 225,000 tickets.Nationally, including both multiplexes and single-screen venues, Saiyaara moved an astounding 380,000 tickets in advance. This made it the second most pre-booked film of 2025, just behind Chhaava, according to Sacnik.What heightens the significance of Saiyaara’s box office domination is the fact that it stars two fresh faces in the lead roles. Such commercial reception for a project with no established marquee names is rare, making the film a standout phenomenon.

In terms of monetary collections from advance bookings alone, Saiyaara earned Rs 9.40 crore, making it the third-highest Bollywood film of 2025 so far. Only Chhaava (Rs 13.80 crore) and Sikandar (Rs 10.10 crore) have performed better in this segment.

Directed by Mohit Suri, known for helming intense romantic dramas, Saiyaara is produced by Akshaye Widhani, the CEO of Yash Raj Films (YRF). The narrative centers on two individuals from vastly different social backgrounds who discover a shared passion for music. As they draw closer, they are forced to confront the complexities of love, age, and fate.

With its emotional core and magnetic soundtrack, Saiyaara seems poised to continue its winning streak at the box office and in the hearts of viewers.
