Pakistan has had its share of animated films in this post-revival age of cinema. But it seems The Donkey King, which is written, directed and co-produced by Aziz Jindani will continue to impress the audience for some time.
Released in cinemas across Pakistan on October 13 under the banner of Geo Films, the film collected around 4 crores in its first week, breaking previous box office records made by other animated films.
In its second week, The Donkey King has raked in 3.75 crores approximately, making the grand total of almost 7.75 crores, according to Entertainment Pakistan. The site also stated that the film’s second weekend numbers are around 36 per cent more than its first weekend numbers.
The Donkey King has become the second highest grossing animated film behind 3 Bahadur: The Revenge of Baba Balaam, which collected over 8 crores. However, it is estimated that The Donkey King will - in the coming weeks - emerge as the highest grossing animated film produced in Pakistan, leaving behind films like Allahyar and the Legend of Markhor that released earlier this year.
