Imran-Sonam starrer I Hate Luv Storys (IHLS) has opened to the collections of almost Rs 7 crore nationwide on Friday. Saturday was even better as the pickings rose to Rs 7.5 crore.

Interestingly, Imran's latest movie has garnered more moolah than arch rival Ranbir's last solo-hero movie Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani. Ajab Prem... had netted Rs 6.25 crore on the first day.

Imran tells Mid-day, "It still has to sink in yet. Maybe by Wednesday, it will. I am an extremely cautious person. I would prefer to wait before plunging into celebration mode."

"I don't know why people have to compare. What really matters is that you do your best, the film is successful and you are appreciated. This helps your next project," says Imran.

Film fraternity and movie's cast & crew shared their excitement on Twitter:

Aamir Khan: Congratulations nephew. I believe your film is doing very well. Got lucky, huh?

Imran Khan: it ain't luck, Mamujaan!

Punit Malhotra: So Sunday was better than friday and saturday... The IHLS collections are superb!!!
