What stood out was that Vanga had no direct connection with the project – yet his confidence made it seem like he already knew the film’s fate.
At the time, most trade experts were skeptical about Saiyaara’s chances. Early predictions suggested that the film would struggle to cross even 5 crores on opening day.
But the romantic drama stunned everyone by collecting over 20 crores on Day 1, becoming one of the biggest surprises in recent history.
With a budget of 50 crore, Saiyaara is now headed towards a staggering 200 crores net collection in India.
Naturally, fans are crediting Vanga for “calling it right” when no one else believed in the film’s box office potential. Social media is buzzing with posts hailing him as a genius who can spot a hit before anyone else.
Interestingly, Mohit Suri has publicly spoken about his admiration for Vanga’s work.
In a recent interview, he said, “After Animal released, half the world seemed against him. But I genuinely loved it. I messaged him, saying I saw the director’s vision in every frame. I’m definitely a fan of his cinema.”
Now, with Saiyaara’s runaway success, this unexpected camaraderie between Suri and Vanga has become a talking point – almost as if two creative minds are cheering each other on in a space where competition often dominates.
