UK Box Office: Shehnaz Gill’s ‘Ishqnama’ opens up at No.11
'Ishqnama'
Shehnaaz Gill and Jayy Randhawa’s Punjabi release ‘Ishqnama’ has opened to a respectable £42,926 in its first weekend at UK cinemas.
The film follows a young couple whose relationship is tested by family pressure, personal ambition and the consequences of a love that refuses to conform. It blends romance with light thriller elements — consistent with the synopsis officially promoted for the title — and positions Gill and Randhawa at the centre of an emotional, conflict‑driven narrative.
