The film Saiyaara, featuring Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda, has overtaken Shahid Kapoor’s Kabir Singh in box‑office collections and is poised to become the highest‑grossing Indian romance to date.
Saiyaara, a romantic drama starring Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda, has eclipsed the earnings of Shahid Kapoor’s Kabir Singh, according to recent box‑office reports. The film’s domestic revenue now surpasses the 1.5‑billion‑rupee mark, placing it ahead of Kabir Singh’s 1.4‑billion‑rupee haul. Industry analysts predict that Saiyaara will soon break the 2‑billion‑rupee threshold, making it the highest‑grossing Indian love story ever.
The success of Saiyaara comes after a strong opening weekend, with audiences praising its fresh narrative and performances. The film’s marketing campaign, which highlighted the chemistry between the lead pair, has been credited with driving repeat viewership.
Box‑office tracking agencies have noted that Saiyaara’s earnings are growing steadily, with a 12% increase in the second week. The film’s distributor has announced plans to expand its release to international markets, potentially boosting its global earnings further.
While Kabir Singh remains a commercial hit, Saiyaara’s rise signals a shift in audience preferences toward new storytelling in the romance genre. Film critics suggest that the movie’s success could inspire more original content in Bollywood’s love‑story segment.
Industry insiders expect Saiyaara to set new benchmarks for box‑office performance, and it may also influence future investment decisions in romantic cinema projects.
