Mumbai, Jun 20 (IBNS): Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt starrer 'Udta Punjab,' the controversial film that risked getting shelved, dished out a strong performance at the Box Ofiice, collecting Rs 33.80 crore on its opening weekend.

Presenting a strong performance in Punjab and Delhi, the movie collected Rs 12.50 crore on Sunday, the highest of the three days' collection, reports said.  

Critic and business analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, "#UdtaPunjab witnessed GOOD escalation on Sun... Maintained STRONG grip in Punjab and Delhi... Plexes of big cities also BIG contributors..."
