Bollywood is buzzing again, and this time, it’s not because of a massy action flick or a star-studded franchise—it’s because of Saiyaara. Directed by Mohit Suri, the man who gave us Aashiqui 2 and Ek Villain, Saiyaara is ready to test the waters with a soft-hearted, music-driven romantic drama that dares to skip the commercial safety net. This film, which is supported by the formidable Yash Raj Films, will be released on July 18, 2025, and stars debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda.
This type of release piques the interest of moviegoers. Can audiences still be drawn in by new faces and emotional music? Or has the era of slow-burn romance been eclipsed by larger-than-life spectacle?
Surprisingly, Saiyaara has already managed to stir quite the storm. Thanks to a soundtrack that hits all the right feels and a trailer that teases emotional intensity, this film has seen booking numbers that would make even mid-range star vehicles jealous. 

Saiyaara Advance Booking – Final Report

This upcoming romantic drama has sold over 1,95,000 tickets in national chains across India (PVR, Inox, and Cinepolis). This number of tickets sold in advance has surely seen a good growth thanks to the 50% discount offer given by the team. Still, such a ticket sale is impressive for a typical romantic drama with two fresh faces as the leads. 

Saiyaara Box Office Expectations

Now let’s talk box office predictions—because that’s what movie buffs live for. Early estimates suggest that the Saiyaara Day 1 collection in India could fall between ₹8–10 crore, and some bullish insiders are even whispering about a potential ₹14–16 crore opening. If that happens, Saiyaara would deliver one of the biggest debuts in recent times for a non-franchise, debutant-led film.
And yet, all eyes are on whether this momentum will last. Saiyaara is reportedly made on a budget of ₹60 crore, and after adding marketing and distribution costs, the film will need to earn around ₹90 crore net in India alone to break even. It’s a tall order, but one that doesn’t seem impossible, especially if the film’s emotional quotient connects with younger viewers and music lovers, both of whom have historically shown up for Mohit Suri’s films.
Internationally, the Saiyaara overseas box office collection remains under wraps for now, but expectations are cautiously optimistic. In markets like the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, and North America, romantic Bollywood dramas have always been popular. Saiyaara may also win over viewers abroad with its universally likeable theme and catchy soundtrack.
Additionally, there is the issue of critical reception. While reviews remain embargoed until release, early whispers from private screenings suggest that Saiyaara could earn praise for its emotional depth and musical integration, even if its narrative isn’t groundbreaking. That might be enough for the film to benefit from positive word-of-mouth, which, in recent years, has helped underdog movies stretch far beyond their opening weekends.
Saiyaara thrives on its musical foundation, staying true to Suri’s style. The film’s soul-stirring soundtrack, which is already at the top of the charts, was composed by Mithoon. Sachet–Parampara and Faheem–Arsalan. Songs like “Saiyaara Title Track,” “Barbaad,” and “Dhun” are starting to appear on playlists for both romantic songs and highly regarded films.
