The Punjabi film Disco Singh opened to a bumper opening across Punjab. The film has been released on 117 cinemas in East Punjab circuit and recorded fantastic collections at multiplexes and single screens. The Delhi city opening was also excellent for a Punjabi film.
The first show at a premium theatre like PVR Jalandhar was around 35,000 while Bhoothnath Returns collected around 6,000. Ludhiana, Amritsar and Chandigarh was the same story as multiplexes recorded outstanding collections,
The opening occupancies were 90-100% which does not happen for Hindi films but as Punjabi films have much smaller releases, the ones which have star value, hype and hit music get very high occupancies. The film has the potential to set a record opening for Punjabi films. If it does not get the record it is certain to be the second biggest opening ever.
