#BoxOfficeCollections: 'Satyaprem Ki Katha' hits first double-digit; earns Rs. 10cr
After showcasing their incredible chemistry in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (2022), Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani have reunited for Sameer Vidwans's Satyaprem Ki Katha. This musical romance—released on Thursday—garnered resoundingly positive reviews from both audiences and critics and earned Rs. 9.25cr on its opening day. Continuing its streak of strong performance, the film collected over Rs. 10cr (early estimates) on day three on Saturday.
Why does this story matter?
Satyaprem Ki Katha—bankrolled by Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment—stood out as the only Hindi film to grace the theaters on Thursday. The decision to release the film on Eid resulted in a good opening-day collection at the box office. It holds significance for Aaryan as it marks his second release in 2023, following Shehzada, and notably, Satyaprem Ki Katha is performing better than the action drama.
