Mohit Suri, Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda’s ‘Saiyaara’ mints ..

Mohit Suri’s romantic action drama Saiyaara is turning into that rare film which refuses to fade quietly from the box office stage. Starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the film has now marched into its sixth week with numbers that most star-studded blockbusters would envy.

In its latest week, Saiyaara collected 2.89 crore in India, barely a whisper below its fifth week’s figure of 2.95 crore. Such stubborn consistency is almost unheard of in an industry where most films peak early and then disappear before the popcorn grows cold. The result is a cumulative collection of 328.69 crore, firmly placing it among the year’s most profitable ventures and easily one of its most surprising.

Trade analysts, initially skeptical about a project led by fresh faces, now credit Suri’s signature cocktail of sweeping romance, chart-topping music, and a dash of high-voltage drama for striking gold across demographics. Word of mouth has clearly been a faithful ally, with audiences returning for repeat viewings, while the soundtrack continues to dominate playlists, drawing younger crowds to the theatres. Families, meanwhile, seem to have latched onto the emotional weight of the story, proving that the film’s appeal is not confined to any single audience bracket.

The timing is even more intriguing with the release of Param Sundari, a love story starring Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor. Whether it can hold its own against the juggernaut of Saiyaara remains to be seen. For Mohit Suri, though, this film is already a career milestone, not only for its box office glory but for introducing two bright newcomers and reminding audiences why he continues to reign as Bollywood’s trusted narrator of love and drama.
