Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon's film Luka Chuppi has already been declared a hit but the film is still enjoying a dream run at the box office. The romantic comedy, which is directed by Laxman Utekar, released on March alongside Sushant Singh Rajput and Bhumi Pednekar starrer Sonhiriya. While  Luka Chuppi opened to good reviews and took a massive opening at the ticket windows, Sushant's dacoit drama failed miserably at the box office despite garnering rave reviews from the critics. The film went out of theatres sooner than expected whereas Kartik and Kriti's film has been minting money since day 1. Luka Chuppi Box Office Collection Day 14: Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon's Romantic Comedy is a HIT, Rakes in Rs 75.24 Crore.

Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to the microblogging site Twitter and revealed the updated figures saying, "#LukaChuppi maintains a strong grip on [third] Fri... Absence of major film/s this week is benefiting holdover titles... Expect substantial growth on [third] Sat and Sun... [Week 3] Fri 1.62 cr. Total: ₹ 76.86 cr. India biz."

Further, trade portal Boxofficeindia.com stated, "Luka Chuppi collected over 1.25 crore nett on its third Friday which means 80 crore nett plus lifetime total for the film. The drop is around 55% from last Friday which is a good hold." The rom-com has certainly surprised everyone with its business because trade experts had predicted that Luka Chuppi will end its theatrical around Rs 75 crore. But that's clearly hasn't happened. Luka Chuppi Box Office Collection Day 13: Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon Starrer Continues to Mint Money, Earns Rs 73.44 Crore.

Produced by Dinesh Vijan, the rom-com has become Kartik's biggest opener to date beating Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 and Sonu Ke Titu Ke Sweety. Utekar's directorial venture, which revolves around live-in relationships, also stars the very talented Aparshakti Khurana, Pankaj Tripathi, and Vinay Pathak.
