Saiyaara currently stands with a global collection of around Rs 395 crore and is now set to surpass the business of Simmba (Rs 400.19 crore), 3 Idiots (Rs 400.61 crore), Brahmastra (Rs 418.8 crore), Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 (Rs 423.85 crore) and Chennai Express (Rs 424.54 crore).
While Simmba is Ranveer Singh’s 2nd highest grosser after Padmaavat, Brahmastra ranks 3rd for Ranbir after Animal and Sanju. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is Kartik Aaryan’s highest-grosser while Chennai Express was SRK’s highest-grosser until 2023 when he delivered Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki.
Saiyaara has already surpassed the collections of Krrish 3 (Rs 393.37 crore), Singham Again (Rs 389.64 crore) and Kick (Rs 388.70 crore).
Before the release of the movie, director Mohit Suri spoke about
_Saiyaara_’s comparison with Aashiqui 2 in an interview with Firstpost. He said, “When I made Zeher, they said it looked like Murder. When I made Ek Villain, they said it looked like Murder 2. When I made Malang, they said it looked like Ek Villain. When I made Aashiqui 2, they said it looked like Woh Lame and Rockstar. So I think when I go ahead and make my next film, they’ll say it looks like Saiyaara. I think when they’re comparing it to my own work rather than somebody else’s, it’s good.”
Saiyaara is directed by Mohit Suri, known for helming movies like Aashiqui 2, Ek Villain, Awarapan, Kalyug, Zeher, Murder 2, Woh Lamhe, Raaz: The Mystery Continues, Hamari Adhuri Kahani, Half Girlfriend, Crook, Ek Villain Returns & Malang.
Bankrolled by YRF, the movie also features Varun Badola & Rajesh Kumar in supporting roles.
