Many eyebrows were raised when 'Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety' entered the 100 crore club. Since its release, Kartik Aaryan became a national sensation. But the actor's first share to fame happened when Pyaar Ka Punchnama was released.
But now reports suggest his recent release Luka Chuppi became the biggest opener of his career. It has beaten the first-day collection of Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 (Rs 6.80 crore) to achieve this feat.
According to movie critic and business analyst Taran Adarsh, cinematographer turned director Laxman Utekar's debut venture Luka Chuppi opened to a tremendous response at the ticket windows and raked in Rs 8.01 crore on its first day at the box office. Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety grossed Rs 6.42 crore on its opening day.
