Ajay Devgn-starrer Maidaan is running in theatres. As per trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film raked in Rs 7.25 cr at the box office on the opening day. "Inspite of the big holiday [#Eid], #Maidaan opens to shockingly low numbers... Biz at urban centres, in particular, should've multiplied post-noon onwards, but, despite merits and appreciation, the Day 1 biz is dismal, way below the mark... Wed previews + Thu Rs 7.25 cr. #India biz. #Boxoffice #Maidaan enjoys glorious word of mouth, but that needs to convert into footfalls, especially over the weekend... In fact, a miraculous turnaround on Sat-Sun is a must... Let's see how its biz pans out in the next couple of days," he wrote on X.
