New Delhi, May 8 - Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh's long-awaited period romantic film Jodi finally dropped in theaters this weekend after going through multiple delays.
A local court of Ludhiana recently stayed the release of the film over copyright claims. It, however, was released as scheduled after the issues were resolved and now, the movie is rocking at the box office, thanks to the rock-solid critics' reviews and positive audience word of mouth.
Written and directed by Amberdeep Singh, "Jodi" had a good opening despite the delayed release and scored around 65 lacs net, before showing a big jump on Saturday and Sunday for a very good weekend total of around 3.35 crores net or around 4 crores gross collection in India.
Just like most Punjabi movies, "Jodi" struck a big opening weekend overseas with an estimated 8 crores gross collection. In North America, it grossed a huge $734K (6 crores) on just 125 screens, with a brilliant $5.75k per-theater average gross, according to Deadline.
The worldwide total of the film is around 12 crores gross after the opening weekend, and it is already the second highest-grossing Punjabi movie of the year, behind Blockbuster "Kali Jotta" which grossed over 40 crores worldwide. "Jodi" is likely to top "Kali Jotta" to become the biggest Punjabi movie of the year, for now.
Starring Dosanjh and Nimrat Khaira as two talented and passionate artists who set out on a journey to redefine the Punjabi folk music scene in the 1980s, "Jodi" is said to be based on the life of slain Punjabi singer Amar Singh Chamkila and his second wife Bibi Amarjot Kaur.
