Will Saiyaara Beat Raid 2 On Opening Day?

If the prediction turned out to be true, Saiyaara will beat Sky Force (Rs 12.25 crores) on the opening day and will be seen giving Ajay Devgn's Raid 2 (Rs 19.25 crores) a tough fight. While Saiyaara is will be making it to the top 5 openers of 2025, it will be interesting to see if it can beat Raid 2 and take the 4th slot after Chhaava, Sikandar and Housefull 5.

Meanwhile, Mohit Suri spoke about Saiyaara's comparisons with Aashiqui and told Firstpost, "When I made Zeher, they said it looked like Murder. When I made Ek Villain, they said it looked like Murder 2. When I made Malang, they said it looked like Ek Villain. When I made Aashiqui 2, they said it looked like Woh Lame and Rockstar. So I think when I go ahead and make my next film, they'll say it looks like Saiyaara. I think when they're comparing it to my own work rather than somebody else's, it's good".
