Saiyaara has rewritten box office history and emerged as a cultural phenomenon, becoming one of the most successful romantic films ever made in Indian cinema. What makes this achievement extraordinary is that the film stars newcomers — yet it has managed to outshine even the biggest star-driven blockbusters in both India and overseas markets.

The film’s box office journey so far has been nothing short of historic. Saiyaara became the first film featuring debutants to enter the ₹100 crore and ₹200 crore nett club in India, and it achieved this milestone within record time. Not only that, it also crossed the ₹300 crore worldwide gross mark, making it the first newcomers-led film in Indian cinema to achieve such a feat.

The opening itself stunned the trade, as Saiyaara recorded the biggest opening day ever for a romantic film, driven by massive youth turnout and exceptional word-of-mouth. It went on to register the highest first day, weekend, and week-one collections for a film led by debutants, proving that fresh talent can indeed bring audiences to theatres when supported by good content and strong emotion.

The film’s momentum didn’t stop there. It also posted the biggest first weekend, first week, and second weekend for a romantic film in India. Remarkably, Saiyaara became the first romance to clock ₹30 crore and ₹35 crore nett on individual days, something that not even top-tier star vehicles have managed in the genre.

The love story, music, and performances have resonated deeply with audiences across urban centers and smaller towns alike. The chemistry between its leads has become the talk of the nation, turning them into overnight sensations. Exhibitors across the country are calling Saiyaara a once-in-a-decade box office event that has revived the romantic genre in a big way.

Looking ahead, more records are expected to tumble. Saiyaara is well on track to become the first newcomers-led film to enter the ₹300 crore nett club in India, and also the first romantic film to achieve ₹300 crore nett domestically. On the global front, it is likely to become the first romantic film to gross over ₹400 crore worldwide.

Trade experts also predict it could record the highest-ever second week for both a romantic and debutant-led film, and may even become the first love story to earn ₹100 crore+ in its second week in India.

With each passing day, Saiyaara is not just breaking records — it’s redefining what’s possible for new talent and for romantic cinema in the modern era.
