SAUNKAN SAUNKNE has set post pandemic records in Punjab as it records the highest collection for a Punjabi film in East Punjab post the pandemic. The collections are not the highest at an all India level as HONSLA RAKH did extraordinary business in the NCR belt. So that film had a higher all India total than SAUNKAN SAUNKNE.

The collections of SAUNKAN SAUNKNE are the highest ever also for Ammy Virk by a huge margin as his earlier openers like QISMAT, QISMAT 2, NIKKA ZAILDAAR 3 and BAMBUKAAT were all under 1.50 crore nett while this film will easily cross the 2 crore nett mark. The film is likely to collect in the 2.15 crore nett range across India pushing his star status to a new level.

In East Punjab, the film will cross the 1.80 crore nett mark beating the 1.76 crore nett of HONSLA RAKH as even big cities like Chandigarh and Amritsar give better collections than HONSLA RAKH. Punjabi films have found it tough going since September-October last year when HONSLA RAKH, QISMAT 2, PUAADA and CHAL MERA PUTT 2. The fantastic opening of this film will be a huge boost for the Punjabi film industry.

The biggest opening days in East Punjab for Punjabi films post the pandemic are as follows.

1. Saunkan Saunkne - 1.80-1.85 crore

2. Honsla Rakh - 1,76,00,000
