'Tanhaji': Ajay Devgn film strong amid new films, limited shows; hits another milestone

The shelf life of a film at the box office has drastically reduced over the years. Forget silver jubilee and golden jubilee hits, that used to run for 25 and 50 weeks respectively in the previous era, very few movies survive 25 days at the box office nowadays. However, one film has crossed this mark in style, Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior.

Here’s the tweet: 

Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior is the highest-grossing film of this year and no other film has even touched the Rs 100-crore mark yet at the box office. While Rs 300-crore looks tough, the movie is definitely in a good position to beat Kabir Singh, that stands at around Rs 280 crore. 

Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior is directed by Om Raut and traces the 17th-century Kondhana Fort war fought between Chhatrapati Shivaji’s warrior Tanaji Malusare and Aurangzeb’s guard Uday Bhan. The action film also stars Saif Ali Khan, Kajol, Sharad Kelkar, Neha Sharma, among others.
