Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 1- Surprises Everyone With Its Huge Amount

Ahaan Panday’s debut has been making headlines in the film industry for quite some time. Now, on 18th July, his much-awaited film ‘Saiyaara’ has finally hit the theatres. Yash Raj Films launched this new star alongside another debutant, Aniya Panday. Directed by Mohit Suri, this film featuring two fresh faces has taken a strong start. Here’s how ‘Saiyaara’ performed on its opening day.

‘Saiyaara’ Casts a Spell on the Audience

Even before its release, ‘Saiyaara’ had generated massive buzz. Ahaan Panday’s entry into Bollywood had become a hot topic across the industry. While many newcomers have made their debuts this year, most have failed to leave a mark. However, all eyes were on Ahaan, who had been preparing for this film for the past 2–3 years. Now that he has stepped into the world of cinema, it appears he has already won hearts. The film’s opening day numbers speak volumes.

A Strong Double-Digit Opening

‘Saiyaara’ made an impressive debut by collecting ₹21 crore on its first day at the box office. This double-digit start signals a strong audience response. Final figures may increase further as more reports come in. According to media sources, the film’s budget is around ₹45 crore, so this opening is nothing short of magical.

Likely to Recover Budget in First Week

With the weekend approaching, the film’s box office numbers are expected to rise even further. It’s very likely that the movie will recover most of its budget within the first week itself. ‘Saiyaara’ is a romantic love story that released alongside two other films — ‘Tanvi The Great’, directed by Anupam Kher, and ‘Nikita Roy’ starring Sonakshi Sinha. However, ‘Saiyaara’ has outperformed both.

Positive Response from Critics

Produced by Aditya Chopra and Akshaye Widhani, the film’s screenplay has been written by Rohan Shankar and Sankalp Seddana. Critics have given ‘Saiyaara’ positive reviews, and audiences are also enjoying the story and the performances.
