Saiyaara continued its strong run. It made over ₹325 crore in 34 days. It became the second-highest-grossing film of 2025. It is a big win for its director, Mohit Suri, and the new actors. Even when big films like Coolie and War 2 came out, Saiyaara still got some audience. It had fewer shows, but people were still going to watch it.

Mahavatar Narsimha Collection
Now, let’s talk about Mahavatar Narsimha. This film is an animated movie. It is a mythological story. It did not have a big opening like Saiyaara. It started slow, earning only ₹1.35 crore on its first day in Hindi. But here the game changes, the film had very good reviews from the audience, including me. This is called “word of mouth.”
Because of the positive talk, Mahavatar Narsimha started to earn more money every day. It had a big jump on its first Sunday. It kept a strong hold even on weekdays. In its first week, it made about ₹34 crore in Hindi. This number is much lower than Saiyaara’s first-week collection.
