Imtiaz Ali has managed to bring two of the biggest upcoming millennial stars
Sara Ali Khan and
Kartik Aaryan together for his film '
Love Aaj Kal'. But it looks like the film has failed to allure to the audience to the theatres as it earned just Rs 6.50 crore on its first Sunday.
According to the latest Box Office India report, the romantic film which earned Rs 11.75 crore on its first day at the box office has gone on to reach a total of Rs 25.25 crore.
The report further suggested that 'Love Aaj Kal' failed to keep up with the buzz and was even rejected in big metros like Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Kolkata and Bangalore.
Sara and Kartik, who have been grabbing a lot of attention due to their rumoured relationship failed to impress the audience with their on-screen performance. Despite a good start due to Valentine's Day, 'Love Aaj Kal' saw a massive drop in its collections on Saturday. Not only that but the film witnessed another drop on Sunday and looks to be following the footsteps
Shahid Kapoor and
Alia Bhatt's '
Shaandaar' in terms of its box office collections.
Meanwhile, in a candid chat with ETimes, Kartik revealed how he feels about being Sara’s crush. He said, “All I can say is that she's always been that confident girl, who's always spoken whatever has come to heart. She doesn't hide things and I really appreciate that. That is something a lot of people don't have. And Sara is someone who really doesn't hide anything, there's nothing to hide. So, I was amazed by her confidence and that day I was also intrigued and told. I thought that I should work with if there's an opportunity. And it happened when Imtiaz Ali sir decided it one fine day.”
