Saiyaara has already surpassed the pre-sales figures of Akshay Kumar's Kesari Chapter 2 (₹1.84 crore), Sunny Deol's Jaat (₹2.59 crore) and Shahid Kapoor's Deva (₹1.66 crore). At this pace, it will also likely surpass Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par (₹3.31 crore) and Akshay Kumar starrer Sky Force, which collected ₹3.78 crore in advance booking.

While Saiyaara marks the debut of Ahaan Panday, who is Bollywood actress Ananya Panday's cousin, his co-star Aneet Padda has acted in the web series Big Girls Don't Cry and the Kajol-starrer film Salaam Venky (2022). Saiyaara captures the essence of love, heartbreak, and emotional healing of a young couple, played by Ahaan and Aneet.
