Ki And Ka has emerged as a clean success. With 3.30 crore more coming in on Tuesday, the film has now collected 32.07 crores at the Box Office. For a film that was made on a budget of 30 crore (including P&A) and had already recovered 50% of its investment before the release, this Balki and Eros film is now in green. Whatever comes from here would add to the tally of profits as 100% of investment has been recovered now.
The film is also ultra-special for Kareena Kapoor since this is now her biggest success of the decade where she is the senior actress on board. Yes, she has delivered bigger successes when paired with the Khans or Ajay Devgn. However, Ki And Ka has her in an equal screen time as Arjun Kapoor and also features in an author backed role. In that aspect, she has pulled through the film quite well and has come across as a reliable actress.
Ki And Ka has already gone past the lifetime collections of many of her films and would be at the top by the end of second weekend, hence surpassing Heroine as well.
2012 – Heroine – 44.25 crore
2012 – Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu – 40 crore
2016 – Ki And Ka – 32.07 crore (Still running)
2010 – We Are Family – 21.64 crore
2013 – Gori Tere Pyaar Mein – 17 crore
2010 – Milenge Milenge – 11 crore
For Arjun Kapoor too, the film is an addition to hits that he has delivered so far. Though he has bigger successes to his name, Ki And Ka is set to be at the top when it comes to a hardcore multiplex film of his doing well. The film should eventually go past Arjun’s debut release Ishaqzaade.
Lifetime collections of Arjun Kapoor starrers are as below:
2014 – 2 States – 102 crore
2014 – Gunday – 78 crore
2012 – Ishaqzaade – 48 crore
2015 – Tevar – 41 crore
2014 – Finding Fanny – 32 crore
2016 – Ki And Ka – 32.07 crore (Still running)
2013 – Aurangzeb – 22.35 crore
