Mohit Suri’s ‘Saiyaara’ mints nearly USD 2 million in North America, crosses Rs 190 crore in India | Hindi Movie News
Mohit Suri’s romantic drama Saiyaara, starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has become a runaway success not just in India but overseas as well. In its first week in North America, the film raked in a remarkable $1.96 million (approx Rs 16.95 crore), signaling strong word-of-mouth and growing love for the fresh-faced leads.
Here’s how the North American box office performed over the first seven days:
- Day 1: $159,024
- Day 2: $267,590
- Day 3: $352,958
- Day 4: $274,490
- Day 5: $368,414
- Day 6: $305,684
- Day 7: $231,320
The film’s consistent performance throughout the week speaks volumes about the growing popularity of Saiyaara among the diaspora audience.The North American numbers come as Saiyaara crosses Rs 190 crore in India, becoming the second highest-grossing Hindi film of 2025, just behind the year’s top blockbuster Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava. Saiyaara has become that one black swan event which will change the course of the industry in the time to come. The film has also given two new names to the industry in Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. A strong romantic drama with emotional depth, an instantly catchy soundtrack, and Mohit Suri’s signature touch of longing and love, Saiyaara is the kind of film that rarely thrives in the current action-dominated marketplace. Yet, it has defied trends and emerged as a massive theatrical success. It has also become the highest grossing film of Mohit’s 14 film long career. With a solid domestic run and an impressive start overseas, Saiyaara is poised to become one of the defining hits of the year. As it enters its second week, all eyes are on whether it can breach the Rs 250 crore mark in India and whether Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda can carry this wave of success into their next ventures.
