Param Sundari: Box Office Performance of Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor's Romantic Drama

Overview of Param Sundari's Release

The romantic drama Param Sundari, featuring Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor, has successfully completed its first week in theaters. This film marks the first collaboration between the two actors and showcases a blend of North and South Indian cultural elements. Audiences have responded positively to its touching narrative and melodious soundtrack.

Box Office Collection Insights

As romance makes a notable return to Hindi cinema, Param Sundari experienced a steady increase in ticket sales over its opening weekend. However, the film's performance saw a decline as the weekdays commenced. By the end of its first week, the film amassed a total of ₹39.85 crore. It debuted with ₹7.25 crore on its first day (Friday), followed by a weekend surge with ₹9.25 crore on Saturday and ₹10.25 crore on Sunday, reflecting growth rates of 27.59% and 10.81%, respectively. Unfortunately, weekday collections fell, starting with ₹3.25 crore on Monday (a drop of 68.29%), before slightly recovering to ₹4.25 crore on Tuesday (an increase of 30.77%). Wednesday's earnings dipped again to ₹2.85 crore, with preliminary estimates for Thursday at ₹2.75 crore, culminating in a total of ₹39.85 crore for the week. Despite the midweek slowdown, the film's overall performance in its first week is considered respectable.

Comparative Performance

While the earnings for Param Sundari are commendable, they are relatively modest when compared to Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's film Saiyaara, which garnered ₹172.50 crore in its opening week.
