Honsla Rakh had a fantastic first three days, grossing about 7.7 crore nett, easily the biggest post pandemic weekend for a Punjabi film and the third highest weekend ever for a Punjabi film. This comes with restrictions, and if they weren’t, you could add another 1 crore nett to the film for the weekend, putting it up against the largest openers of all time, Shadaa and Carry On Jatta 2.
