It was a tough competition between Tanhaji and Chhapaak as both the films featured an impressive star cast. The Meghna Gulzar directorial was based on the story of real life acid attack survivor, Laxmi Agarwal. Talking about its box office collection, trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, “#Chhapaak is ordinary on Day 1... Collects well at select high-end multiplexes... Biz at Tier-2 and 3 cities and also mass circuits is way below the mark... Growth on Day 2 and 3 crucial for a respectable weekend total... Fri ₹ 4.77 cr. #India biz.” Good Newwz Box Office Collection Day 15: Akshay Kumar Starrer Earns Rs 183.43 Crore; Release of Tanhaji and Chhapaak Affect Its Growth?
