Satyaprem Ki Katha Box Office Collection Day 1: Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani's romantic film released in theatres amid much anticipation.

According to trade reports, the film earned Rs 9.25 crore nett on its opening day. 

Satyaprem Ki Katha Box Office Report

The film, which marks the reunion of Bollywood’s hit on-screen pair Kartik and Kiara after their blockbuster movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, opened to positive reviews and reactions on social media. According to Boxofficeindia.com, Satyaprem Ki Katha collected an estimated ₹8.5 -9 crore on Thursday. It stated that the number would have been a good collection without the Eid holiday factor. It remains to be seen how the film performs on its day 2, a working Friday. 

"There will be a drop on the second day as it is coming off a holiday and on top there were block bookings on the first day but it will be crucial that the drop is not so big that it makes it tough for the Saturday number to at least come back to the day one number and preferably higher," stated the BOI report.
