Param Sundari To Become Sidharth & Janhvi’s 1st Hit In 8 Years

Sharing the film’s box office biz, trade analyst Taran Adarsh wrote, “#ParamSundari has opened to a better-than-expected response – without any discounted ticket schemes or #BOGO offer... In fact, its opening day numbers are higher than #Maddock's #TeriBaatonMeinAisaUljhaJiya [₹ 7.02 cr], a similar genre film.

Although pre-release expectations were on the lower side, strong spot bookings played a pivotal role on Day 1.

#ParamSundari also benefited from being a solo release... Moreover, the popular soundtrack – especially #Pardesiya – along with its youth-oriented love story, attracted a good turnout from young audiences.

#ParamSundari is now expected to grow on Saturday and Sunday, setting the stage for a healthy and respectable opening weekend.
