Overview

  • Sarbala Ji grossed an estimated ₹11.5 crore globally in its debut weekend, with ₹5 crore coming from India and ₹6.5 crore from overseas markets.
  • Domestic collections rose from ₹1.20 crore on Friday to ₹1.60 crore on Saturday and ₹2.20 crore on Sunday, marking a more than twofold jump from Friday to Sunday.
  • Punjab state drove most of the film’s domestic growth, while rest-of-India receipts remained flat under competition from the Bollywood release Saiyaara.
  • Directed by Mandeep Kumar and written by Surmeet Maavi and Inderjit Moga, the comedy drama stars Ammy Virk, Sargun Mehta, Nimrat Khaira and Gippy Grewal.
  • Industry observers say sustaining weekday earnings above ₹1 crore per day will be critical if Sarbala Ji is to challenge 2025’s top-grossing Punjabi releases.
