Disney is reportedly expecting an opening weekend of over $100 million for Frozen 2. Though no animated film released in November has achieved the feat of earning that big a number in its first weekend, early reports suggest that Frozen 2 will be the first one to do so. On the other hand, the film has opened to a wide release in India. Popular Bollywood celebrities like Priyanka Chopra, Parineeti Chopra and Shruti Hassan have been roped in to voice the characters of the film in Hindi. This has resulted in a positive outcome as it opened to good numbers. Frozen 2 might face strong competition from Pagalpanti in India. As per reports, even with tough competition, Frozen 2 has opened to a 25-30% occupancy, which is better than Pagalpanti's 15% occupancy.
