Box Office: 'Saiyaara' First Tuesday (Day 5) Early Estimates; Surpasses Monday Collection

Mumbai, July 23 - There seems to be no stopping Saiyaara, which continues its historic run at the box office since its release on July 18. After a stellar opening weekend and an impressive hold on its first Monday, the Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda-starrer has taken another leap on Tuesday, posting even higher collections.

According to early estimates, Saiyaara has collected in the range of 24–26 crore net on Day 5 (Tuesday), witnessing a 5%–10% jump from Monday. The romantic drama benefited significantly from the discounted ticket pricing offer, driving footfalls across urban and mass belts.



With this jump, the film is now challenging the Tuesday collection of Vicky Kaushal’s blockbuster Chhaava, which earned 25.25 crore on its first Tuesday. It may even come close to Saiyaara's own Saturday figures (26 crore net), depending on where the actuals land.

Importantly, average occupancy has remained strong at around 50%, which has been a rare case this year. As of the end of Tuesday, Saiyaara has amassed 132+ crore net domestically. With two more days left in the week, the film is expected to finish its first-week total with 160 crore or more — the highest-ever for a debutant-led Indian film.

Advance bookings for Wednesday are also reportedly excellent, pointing toward another big day ahead. The absence of major competition is aiding the film's momentum; however, with the kind of phenomenon it has turned into, it would still be performing on the same level.
