Box Office Outlook: How ‘Param Sundari’ Might Perform on Day One

The romantic drama ‘Param Sundari,’ starring Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor, has finally debuted in cinemas. The film marks the first time the two actors have shared screen time and explores the fusion of North and South Indian cultures. It has garnered early positive feedback due to its touching narrative and enchanting songs. The romantic genre is making a comeback in Hindi cinema, which has drawn audiences looking for a delightful rom-com. Advance ticket sales have been robust, with over one lakh tickets sold across various booking platforms for its opening day. The film’s success on its opening weekend could be influenced by the favorable reviews and positive audience feedback. Industry experts anticipate that ‘Param Sundari’ will earn between Rs 7-9 crore in India on its first day. This opening performance is reasonable for a romantic comedy, but might not fully satisfy Maddock Films’ expectations. Comparisons can be made with other films, like ‘Dhadak 2’, which opened at Rs 3.35 crore; ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’, which earned Rs 7.20 crore on Day 1; and ‘Saiyaara’, which had a debut of Rs 21 crore. The performance of ‘Param Sundari’ over its opening weekend will be crucial to determining its overall success. Directed by Tushar Jalota and produced by Dinesh Vijan, ‘Param Sundari’ showcases a cultural romance between Param (Sidharth Malhotra) and Sundari (Janhvi Kapoor) in Kerala. The cast includes Renji Panicker, Siddhartha Shankar, Manjot Singh, Sanjay Kapoor, and Inayat Verma.
