Charan loses to Parineeti Chopra

Last Friday, we saw Ram Charan and Priyanka Chopra starrer "Zanjeer" and Parineeti Chopra and Sushant Singh Rajput starrer "Shuddh Desi Romance" take it head on at the box-office. And, as predicted, it's the breezy romance that seems to clearly emerge as the box-office favorite over theweekend.

While Maneesh Sharma's “Shuddh Desi Romance” netted Rs.23.27 crore on its first weekend,  Apoorva Lakhia's “Zanjeer” proved to be quite a dud with a mere collection of just Rs.10.16 crore in the first week.

While SDR started off to a lukewarm response, it caught up on Saturday and Sunday, while Zanjeer started out well, but lost out over the weekend.

Trade Analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted:

“Priyanka's Zanjeer, made on a budget of Rs.70 crore, got panned by the critics and audience while Shuddh Desi Romance, that was made on a budget of Rs.30 crore, impressed critics and audience for its fresh cast and storyline.”

Parineeti Chopra is ecstatic  by the success.

"When I read the script I was sure that this is going to be a very entertaining film. I was happy that Maneesh and Adi (Aditya Chopra from YRF) offered me this film because after 'Ishaqzaade' I wanted to do something different and 'Shuddh Desi Romance' clicked," Parineeti said .

"It has released and people are liking it, the reviews are good and all the performances and Jaideep (Sahni, scriptwriter) and Maneesh's work is being appreciated. When there are a lot of messages and missed calls on your phone, you like it. So, I am very happy," added the 24-year-old.
