call a function with multiple outputs defined in another file in another file

Let assume that I have file named Input.py that have the following function:

import pandas as pd    

def fun_input(fName)
     ind = pd.read_excel(fName)
     p1 = ind[0]
     p2 = ind[1]

Now, I like to call this function in another file named Main.py and use the values of p1 and p2 for a given value of fName (that I will define in the main file). I have written a code like below but I am not how I should make it works. Please help me.

from Input import fun_input

fName = '1.xlsx'
p1 = fun_input(fName).p1
p2 = fun_input(fName).p2

You can use "return" to return the values? Don't know if 'I'm missing something, seems too trivial haha. But maybe this:

def fun_input(fName)
     ind = pd.read_excel(fName)
     p1 = ind[0]
     p2 = ind[1]
     return {'p1':p1,'p2':p2}
returnValues=fun_input(fname)
p1 = returnValues['p1']
p2 = returnValues['p2']

import pandas as pd    

def fun_input(fName)
     ind = pd.read_excel(fName)
     return ind[0], ind[1]

In the other file

from Input import fun_input

fName = '1.xlsx'
p1, p2 = fun_input(fName)
