This surge indicates sustained interest and positive word-of-mouth, which is a promising sign for its continued success.
Internationally, Saiyaara has also made a notable impact. On its second Friday, the film grossed over Rs30 crore globally, surpassing the $1 million mark in a single day in overseas markets.

With these numbers, it has surpassed Housefull 5 to claim the position of the second-highest-grossing film of 2025, trailing only behind the historical epic Chhawaa, which leads with Rs601 crore.
Set against a musical backdrop, Saiyaara tells the story of Krish Kapoor, a struggling musician, and Vaani Batra, a reclusive novelist.
