Karwaan, starring Irrfan Khan, Dulquer Salmaan and Mithila Palkar in the lead roles, showed great growth at the box-office on Tuesday as it added Rs 1.50 crore more to its kitty. The jump from Monday, when it earned Rs 1.10 crore, is over 36 per cent, which happens rarely during the weekdays. The film's total collection, after a five-day run, stands at Rs 10.70 crore. Karwaan, which was so far trailing behind Mulk, is now ahead of it in the box-office race. The Rishi Kapoor and Taapsee Pannu-starrer has minted Rs 10.61 crore till now.
Earlier on Friday, Karwaan witnessed the lowest opening among the new releases as it raked in Rs 1.60 crore. On Saturday and Sunday, the film took a substantial jump and collected Rs 2.80 crore and Rs 3.70 crore respectively to reach a respectable first-weekend total of Rs 8.10 crore.
Karwaan, as the current trend suggests, is expected to remain steady in its performance in days to come. At least till the next Friday, when the Kamal Haasan-starrer Vishwaroop 2 will hit the screens, the film can do fairly well.

Karwaan tells the story of three people coming from different walks of life who take a road trip together under odd circumstances. The film, helmed by first-time director Akarsh Khurana, received mostly positive reviews upon its release on August 3. It is produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Priti Rathi Gupta under the film production banners of RSVP Movies and Ishka Films.
