Khel Khel Mein starring Bilal Abbas Khan and Sajal Aly became the first Pakistani film to release post the pandemic and it has brought the life back to cinemas which were witnessing a lull since the last two years.
Based on the fall of Dhaka, the film has garnered good word of mouth from the public.
The film has collected a total of 1.85 crores in its first week which considering the limited screens it got and being the first film to come out post the pandemic is a good enough result.

Saturday: 60lacs
Sunday: 42lacs
Monday: 14lacs
Tuesday: 15lacs
Wednesday: 14lacs

The numbers indicate two positive factors for the film, a massive jump on Saturday and it has maintained approximately 50% of Fridays collections on weekdays.
The film opened in a few overseas markets and was able to collect a total of 65 lacs in the first week. With this the Nabeel Qureshi directorial currently stands at a total of 2.5 crores worldwide.
With little competition in week two, the film is set to add more business in its Kitty. Even with moderate business, it will be remembered for starting the cinema going experience all over again.
