‘Saiyaara’ beats Bollywood’s blockbusters
While many recent films have leaned on the appeal of star actors, ‘Saiyaara’ is succeeding thanks to its strong storyline, emotional depth, and engaging music. The film has outperformed major releases like ‘Dunki,’ featuring Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback alongside Rajkumar Hirani, and ‘Singham Again,’ which saw the return of the Ajay Devgn–Rohit Shetty duo. Additionally, ‘Saiyaara’ has surpassed popular movies such as ‘Drishyam 2’ (Rs 239.67 crore), ‘The Kerala Story’ (Rs 239.05 crore), and ‘Krrish 3’ (Rs 231.79 crore). It is currently just above the earnings of ‘URI: The Surgical Strike’ (Rs 244.14 crore), which was previously regarded as an all-time blockbuster.
Tough competition ahead
If the romantic drama continues at the same pace, the film might soon join the Rs 300 crore club. Further, while ‘Saiyaara’ is maintaining a strong hold at the box office, numbers might get affected by the new releases scheduled for this week. On 1st August, two new films, ‘Dhadak 2’ and ‘Son of Sardaar 2’, will make it to the theatres. The former is an intense drama, while the latter is a comedy riot.
