Saiyaara Box Office: Has an excellent second week as it hits a century, though is facing major competition now
It was an excellent second week for Saiyaara as it ended up hitting a century. When films need to be really special to go past the Rs. 100 crores mark in their entire lifetime, here comes a newcomer romantic drama which has not just opened exceedingly well but also sustained pace for second week in succession to come so close to the Rs. 300 crores mark in just 14 days.
As a matter of fact, it could well have done that by the close of second week itself. However out of nowhere came Mahavatar Narsimha and that ended up collecting almost Rs. 30 crores in just the Hindi version. Now that definitely impacted the run of Saiyaara and it would be safe to assume that at least Rs. 12-15 crores could well have been lost there. This was seen from the fact that barring Tuesday (when there were reduced ticket rates and hence heavier footfalls), none of the weekdays could go past the Rs. 10 crores mark. Also, there were steady drops also seen (though in absolute terms the collections were still quite good).
The Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda film currently stands at Rs. 285.25 crores and it will enter the Rs. 300 Crore Club tomorrow. While it seemed all but confirmed that it would enter the Rs. 400 Crore Club at ease, now that won’t be possible and the best case scenario for the Mohit Suri film would be to find itself in Rs. 360-375 crores range. That would still ensure that it keeps its All Time Blockbuster tag.
Note: All collections as per various box office sources
