Mohit Suri's Saiyaara, starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is generating buzz. Advance bookings show promising numbers, especially in Hindi regions. The film's advance gross is approximately Rs 2.20 crore. Saiyaara has the potential to be the biggest opening for newcomers. The film faces competition from past releases. Saiyaara releases on July 18th with a discount offer.
The much-anticipated film Saiyaara, directed by Mohit Suri and starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has generated significant buzz ahead of its release. As per the first-day advance booking report shared by Sacnilk at 10 AM, the film is showing promising numbers, indicating that moviegoers are eagerly awaiting its arrival in theaters. The advance booking statistics suggest a strong opening, especially in the Hindi-speaking regions.
The Saiyaara first-day advance gross stands at Rs 86,57,587 (approximately 86.58 Lac). This gross figure reflects the total revenue generated from advance bookings across multiple regions. The number of tickets sold, as per the report, is 28,532, which further underscores the growing anticipation for the film. Currently, the booking has opened for about 1950 shows.
The film has also generated a good block booking for itself -its number is currently hovering around Rs 1.33 crore - thus taking the overall advance booking of the film to Rs 2.20 crore. The film is still two days away from release and going by the trend, it has all the potential to become the biggest opening day collection for a film with newcomers. The record is currently held by Ishaan Khattar and Janhvi Kapoor's debut film Dhadak, which had an opening day collection of Rs 8.5 crore.
One also needs to factor in that the makers of Saiyaara are offering 50 % discount until Rs 200 on booking of 2 tickets or more for the opening day. So one needs to take the total collection of the film with a pinch of salt as how much is the original amount and how much is discounted.
While there are 7 other films releasing on 18th July- Saiyaara has the strongest chance of shining but it will face resistance for past releases like Aamir's Sitaare Zameen Par, Rajkummar's Maalik, Scarlett Johansson's Jurassic Park: Rebirth and Brad Pitt's F1.
