Mumbai: Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani-starrer “Satyaprem Ki Katha” collected Rs 9.25 crore on its opening day at the domestic box office, the makers announced Friday.

The musical romance drama is directed by National award-winning filmmaker Sameer Vidwans, known for the critically-acclaimed 2019 Marathi drama “Anandi Gopal”.

Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and Namah Pictures, the film debuted in theatres countrywide on Thursday.

In a statement, the makers said "Satyaprem Ki Katha" has provided Aaryan the "third-highest opening of his career".

"Satyaprem Ki Katha' has brought back the theatres and opened at a relishing note for the distributors. The theatres have certainly seen a rush of the audience that has made the film open bigger than a lot of biggies with its first-day collection of 9.25 crore on the first day," the statement read.

The film marks a reunion between Aaryan and Advani, who most recently featured in horror comedy “Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2”.

"Satyaprem Ki Katha" also stars Gajraj Rao, Supriya Pathak and Rajpal Yadav.
