Box Office Success for Punjabi Film 'Shinda Shinda No Papa'
The Punjabi film Shinda Shinda No Papa has continued to impress at the box office, grossing a robust Rs. 10.50 crore in its second week worldwide, a decline of just 40% from its opening week. The film's strong hold, particularly in India where collections dropped by only 35%, has contributed to its cumulative earnings of Rs. 28.50 crore over two weeks.
India has contributed Rs. 12.80 crore to the film's total, while overseas markets have added Rs. 15.70 crore. Pakistan's box office collections, which are not yet included, are estimated to further boost the tally by another crore or more, potentially pushing the total close to Rs. 30 crore.
Impressive Box Office Performance in India
The film's Indian box office performance has been particularly noteworthy. After a low opening, it has sustained well, with weekdays in the second week holding strong. The second Thursday's collections, matching those of the second Friday, marked only a 15% decline week-over-week.
Further good news for the film came with the postponement of this week's release, Rose Rosy Te Gulab. This development has given Shinda Shinda No Papa another week without direct competition. The third week is expected to witness a strong hold for the film, potentially propelling it ahead of Jatt Nu Chudail Takkri as the highest-grossing Punjabi film of the year.
