Saunkan Saunkanay 2 collects 8.25 cr in 4 days

Box Office India Trade Network

The Punjabi Film SAUNKAN SAUNKANAY 2 has done well at the box office with a good hold on Monday. The drop is almost 50% but it was a holiday in Punjab (political) on day one and 70% of the business is coming from the Punjab state. This makes the hold much better than the numbers make it look. The jump on Saturday was also limited due to the holiday as Punjab collections dropped on day two but growth outside the home state was good.

The film is not as big as the first film released in 2022, SAUNKAN SAUNKNE, as that film was a BLOCKBUSTER. Nevertheless, this film will emerge a HIT at least and will be a much needed one for the film industry as at last a film sees some good collections. The film also fared well Overseas with almost $800k coming over the first weekend.

The film could aim for the 20 crore nett figure for domestic business and be among the top ten Punjabi films. The worldwide figures for the weekend were 16.50 crore and the film will have a good run in overseas as well with Australia and UK showing good numbers compared to the first film of the franchise.

The all-India collections of SAUNKAN SAUNKANAY 2 till date are as follows.
Friday - 2,05,00,000
Saturday - 2,15,00,000
Sunday - 3,00,00,000
Monday - 1,05,00,000
TOTAL - 8,25,00,000

Saunkan Saunkanay 2 collects 2.10 cr on Day 1

The Punjabi film SAUNKAN SAUNKANAY 2 has scored at the box office as it records collections in the 2.05-2.10 crore nett range and is among the top ten openings for Punjabi films. It is after a long time that a Punjabi film has opened well which also has had its struggles post pandemic at the box office. The last was JATT & JULIET 3 which was 3.40 crore nett. The highest opening ever remains CARRY ON JATTA 3 with a huge 4.50 crore nett though it was a holiday.

SAUNKAN SAUNKANAY 2 also had a holiday, though only in Punjab. Hence, it remains to be seen how this has played out as the film has good collections also in Haryana and Delhi/UP which are sure to grow further though growth in Punjab maybe tougher to come by. The collections are a little less than SAUNKAN SAUNKNE (2022) but market conditions then had not deteriorated to the extent they have now, especially over the year.

The overseas numbers are better than the previous installment as the film collects around $200k though with Hollywood films dominating, there were showcasing issues in all the major circuits be it Canada, Australia or UK. The film got an excellent A$80k in Australia and United Kingdom was very good with £35k.

The worldwide gross for day one is almost 4.25 crore and the film should go on from here and emerge a winner. The Punjabi industry struggles are also down as many big films are being made in different genres while the box office has always seen a set pattern in each era. At present, the pattern is comedy genre for the bigger numbers. There will be exceptions but this film again proves the genre point as the safest bet.
