Kartik Aaryan's Box Office Report Card: His Top 5 Hits Before TMMTMTTM

As the countdown begins for Christmas 2025, the industry is placing its bets on Kartik Aaryan's upcoming romantic comedy, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri (TMMTMTTM). The film promises to be a festive treat, marking a significant reunion for Kartik with director Sameer Vidwans (following Satyaprem Ki Katha) and co-star Ananya Panday, bringing back the chemistry that sparked interest in Pati Patni Aur Woh. To understand the magnitude of this release, we must look at Kartik's track record. Here are the Top 5 biggest hits of his career , cementing his status as a bankable superstar. The crown jewel of his career is undoubtedly the recent blockbuster Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 (2024). Released during the competitive Diwali window, this horror-comedy saw Kartik return as Rooh Baba to face off against Vidya Balan and Madhuri Dixit, with Triptii Dimri as the romantic lead. Directed by the comedy veteran Anees Bazmee, the film shattered records with an India Net Collection of ₹260.11 Cr and a Worldwide gross of over ₹400 Cr. With a budget of approximately ₹150"“195 Cr, it earned a Super Hit verdict, proving that Kartik can anchor a massive franchise tentpole. Holding the second spot is the film that arguably saved the Hindi box office post-pandemic: Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (2022). Stepping into a franchise previously led by Akshay Kumar was a daunting task, but Kartik made it his own. Directed by Anees Bazmee and produced by T-Series, the film starred Kiara Advani and Tabu in pivotal roles. Made on a budget of roughly ₹ 80 Cr, it defied all odds to collect ₹ 184.32 Cr (India Net) and ₹ 265.5 Cr (Worldwide). The film was declared a Blockbuster, establishing the Kartik-Anees Bazmee actor-director combo as a goldmine for the industry. The movie that officially catapulted Kartik into the A-league is Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018). This film marked the peak of his collaboration with mentor and director Luv Ranjan, who had given him his break in Pyaar Ka Punchnama. Co-starring Nushrratt Bharuccha and Sunny Singh, this bromance vs. romance comedy connected instantly with the youth. Made on a modest budget of approx. ₹30 Cr, it surprised everyone by entering the 100-Crore club, minting ₹ 108.95 Cr(India Net) and ₹ 156.46 Cr (Worldwide). It was a massive Blockbuster that proved Kartik could carry a commercial film purely on his comic timing and monologue fame. Ranked fourth is the small-town rom-com Luka Chuppi (2019), which showcased Kartik's ability to shine in family entertainers. Directed by Laxman Utekar, the film paired him with Kriti Sanon and featured stellar support from Pankaj Tripathi. The film dealt with the subject of live-in relationships in a conservative setting. It was a highly profitable venture; made on a budget of just ₹25 Cr, it collected ₹94.75 Cr (India Net) and ₹128 Cr (Worldwide). The verdict was Super Hit, solidifying his appeal in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities. Rounding out his top 5 hits is Pati Patni Aur Woh (2019), a film particularly relevant today as it featured his TMMTMTTM co-star, Ananya Panday. Directed by Mudassar Aziz, this modern remake of the classic comedy also starred Bhumi Pednekar. The movie was praised for its humor and the chemistry between the leads. Produced on a budget of approx. ₹40 Cr, it collected ₹ 84.56 Cr (India Net) and ₹ 109 Cr (Worldwide), earning a Hit verdict. The successful pairing of Kartik and Ananya in this film is a major reason why trade analysts are bullish on their reunion in Tu Meri Main Tera.... Kartik Aaryan's box office history shows a clear pattern: he excels in comedies and romantic entertainers that appeal to families and youth alike. With TMMTMTTM bringing him back to the romantic-comedy genre with a tested director (Sameer Vidwans) and a familiar co-star (Ananya Panday), the stage is set for potentially his next big entry into this elite list.
