Anupam opens over “Saiyaara”. dominating Tanvi The Great at box office
Obviously, comparisons and competition are invetable when two movies hits theatres the same day. That’s precisely what happened when Mohit Suri’s elegant romantic drama Saiyaara and Anupam Kher’s touching drama Tanvi The Great opened in theaters on the same day. Tanvi The Great failed to achieve the same level of commercial success as the latter, which dominated the box office with over Rs 500 crore and captured the hearts of the public with its music and youthful star cast.
However,Anupam Kher believes that movies are about feelings rather than profits. When asked if he believes the Saiyaara craze is to blame for his film’s poor performance, the veteran actor responded, he doesn’t believe.
Anupam Kher went on to add that “a few years down the line, when someone will ask what are your five favorite films are, you won’t name the ones based on which of these movies made a business worth crores.” The actor continued, “You’ll name the ones which touched your hearts.” “Maybe Tanvi the Great didn’t mint much money, but it is still priceless. He very recently met a lady outside the theater who hugged him (Anupam) tightly and started crying, saying this was the best film she has ever watched.
Anupam Kher’s remarks provided a much-needed break in a society that is fixated on numbers. “You don’t value everything based only on money.
If money is everything then people will always eat in a 5-star Hotel isn’t it why notin a Dhaba?.
He also revealed that he firmly supports his film notwithstandingnthe poor collections and that his film is outstanding commercially.
Tanvi The Great is subtly capturing hearts, while Saiyaara continues to rule the screen-thanks to its
box office power and Gen-Z appeal. Anupam Kher is the film’s producer and director. He co-stars with Iain Glen. On July 18, 2025, Tanvi the Great was released in theaters.
