Shows of ‘Saiyaara’ increased in theatres, screens go from 800 to 2,000, as the Ahaan Panday, Aneet Padda movie continues its dream run at the box office after crossing Rs 150 crore

If consistency is the key to success, then Saiyaara just unlocked the vault.

Mohit Suri’s directorial Saiyaara has officially become a blockbuster—and how! The film raced past the ₹150 crore mark within just six days, like an F1 driver on a mission. From packed theatres to viral Instagram reels, the buzz is electric and the love is loud.

What started with just 800 screens has now grown to a whopping 2000 across India, with over 11,000 daily shows. Now that’s what you call a roaring debut. The reason? Simple—when demand skyrockets, supply follows. And Saiyaara is delivering, big time.

Interestingly, despite fewer screens, the film has outperformed bigger-budget releases like Sikandar and Housefull 5, both of which had 4000–5000 screens. That’s proof that it’s not always the scale, but the story that makes the impact.

While Saiyaara continues to dominate, it’s not all smooth sailing ahead. With Son of Sardar 2 and Dhadak 2 arriving in theatres soon, the competition will heat up. But for now, Saiyaara is soaking in its well-earned spotlight—and showing everyone how a debut is really done.
