Saiyaara Surpassed Lifetime Collection Of Aashiqui 2 in Just 5 Days

“Aashiqui 2 ka record koi tod sakta hai kya?” Well, Mohit Suri’s Saiyaara just did it—and that too in only 5 days!

Featuring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, Saiyaara has taken the box office by storm, surpassing the lifetime global collection of the 2013 superhit Aashiqui 2. What’s more interesting?

Both films were helmed by the same director—Mohit Suri, the king of intense love stories! Backed by YRF, this romantic drama has quickly won hearts with its soulful music, emotional story, and fresh chemistry.

From Rs 21.5 Cr on Day 1 to crossing Rs 132 Cr in just five days, the numbers speak for themselves. And this isn't just about breaking records—it's about redefining what a debut film can achieve, even without a big star cast or franchise tag.

Saiyaara Beats Aashiqui 2 Overall Collection?

Yes, you read that right! Since the release of Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's Bollywood debut film Saiyaara, both fans and critics have been drawing parallels to Aashiqui 2. Interestingly, Aashiqui 2 is directed by Mohit Suri, who also directed Saiyaara. According to the most recent update, Saiyaara, the film supported by YRF, has now exceeded the lifetime revenue of Aashiqui 2 globally.

One of the most frequently discussed achievements is Saiyaara exceeding the global total of Aashiqui 2. Launched in 2013, Mohit Suri's Aashiqui 2 quickly became a hit and is regarded as one of the era's most successful love stories.Despite having a modest budget of Rs 15 crore, the film made over Rs 110 crore worldwide, making its lead actors instant celebrities and establishing Mohit Suri as one of Bollywood's leading directors for fervent romances.

Although Saiyaara has surpassed that figure, it still has progress to make regarding profitability. Aashiqui 2 was produced with a small budget of Rs 15 crore, whereas Saiyaara was said to have a production cost of Rs 50 crore. It needs to make more than an astounding Rs 380 crore globally in order to compete with Aashiqui 2's profit margin.

Nonetheless, it’s undeniable that Saiyaara has resonated with viewers. Thanks to excellent word of mouth and consistent ticket sales, this first film is becoming one of the top box office successes of the year.

Mohit Suri’s Saiyaara Surpassed Sky Force, Kesari Chapter 2 & Sikandar

The Yash Raj Films production has grossed about 151 crores in four days, which is more than the combined worldwide receipts of Sky Force, starring Akshay Kumar, and Kesari 2, which brought in 150 crores and 145 crores, respectively. In addition to being a remarkable debut for its new cast, Saiyaara is also among the Bollywood productions that have made the most money worldwide this year.

The Monday hold was especially significant as it indicates strong word-of-mouth. Although it is a non-franchise and newcomer-driven film, Saiyaara has quickly risen to become the 6th highest-grossing Bollywood movie of the year.

By today or tomorrow, the newest blockbuster will surpass Salman Khan's Sikandar (185 crores) to rank as the 5th highest grosser of the year. Saiyaara will remain the top choice for Hindi box office goers until August 1st, when there won't be much competition.

With powerful storytelling and growing word-of-mouth, Saiyaara is proving that fresh talent and heartfelt cinema still rule the box office. And this is just the beginning!
