Ki and Ka Box Office: The Arjun, Kareena film is the third biggest opener of 2016

R Balki's Ki and Ka, an unconventional love story starring Arjun Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor embarked onto a good start at the Box Office as the film raked in around Rs 7.30 crore on its opening day, 1 April.

The film recorded low occupancy of around 15 to 20 per cent in the morning shows. However, the collections picked up well towards the evening and late night shows - a positive sign for the film. The best collections - as expected - came in from Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru and Pune. The collections at mass-dominated circuits like CI (Central India) did not disappoint either as the film collected approximately Rs 26 lakhs in the region.
