In what can only be described as a spectacular dream run, Saiyaara has crossed the Rs. 500 crore mark at the worldwide box office, solidifying its status as one of the year’s most successful films. Starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the romantic action drama has achieved this monumental feat within just 18 days of its theatrical release, making it the second film of 2025 to enter the coveted Rs. 500 crore club after Chhaava.
According to trade estimates, Saiyaara has grossed a massive Rs. 373.11 crore in India, while its performance in the overseas markets has been equally impressive, adding Rs. 129.29 crore to its total. This takes the film’s global gross to exactly Rs. 502.4 crore, a rare milestone for a film headlined by debutant leads.
The domestic reception of Saiyaara has been overwhelmingly positive, with the film benefitting from strong word of mouth, repeat viewings, and a robust theatrical presence even into its third week. Its India nett collection stands at Rs. 308 crore, indicating that audiences across all regions have embraced the film’s emotional narrative, dynamic performances, and striking visuals.
Overseas, Saiyaara has surprised many by outperforming bigger-budgeted competitors, with key markets such as the Middle East, North America, and Australia showing sustained traction. The international appeal of its leads—particularly Ahaan Panday, who marks his grand debut—and the universal theme of love and redemption have helped the film resonate with global audiences.
With this accomplishment, Saiyaara now stands alongside Chhaava—which leads the box office charts of 2025 with an astonishing Rs. 797.34 crore worldwide—as the only two films this year to surpass the Rs. 500 crore benchmark. While Chhaava had the advantage of star power and franchise familiarity, Saiyaara has done the unimaginable by riding on fresh faces and a new storyline.
The triumph of Saiyaara is a testament to the evolving tastes of the audience and the power of storytelling. It has not only positioned Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda as serious contenders in the industry but has also proven that new talent, when backed by strong content and efficient marketing, can shatter box office ceilings.
As it continues its theatrical run, all eyes are now on how far Saiyaara will go—and whether it can narrow the gap with Chhaava to become the highest-grossing film of the year. Regardless of what lies ahead, Saiyaara has already carved a place for itself in 2025’s cinematic history.
