Paresh Rawal's latest film, The Taj Story, released in theatres on October 31 and has shown steady performance at the box office. The movie opened to a respectable response over the weekend but experienced a decline in attendance on weekdays. Despite this dip, it continues to attract audiences due to its engaging storyline and strong performances. By its fifth day, the film had collected ₹8.16 crore in total earnings. The movie now faces competition from new releases, including Haq and The Girlfriend, in the coming weekend. Produced on a budget of approximately ₹25 crore, The Taj Story still has a considerable distance to cover before recovering its production costs. The courtroom drama, directed by Tushar Amrish Goel, tells the story of a local guide exploring the true history of the Taj Mahal. The film features a strong cast including Zakir Hussain, Amruta Khanvilkar, and Namit Das.
Box Office Performance and Collection Details
On its fifth day, The Taj Story earned ₹1.35 crore, taking its total collection to ₹8.16 crore, according to early estimates from Sacnilk. The film recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 28.68 per cent on Tuesday, with night shows witnessing the highest attendance at 56.71 per cent. While the movie has grown steadily over its first five days, it is approaching the ₹10 crore milestone. The film's ability to maintain momentum during the upcoming weekend, when it faces competition from fresh releases like Haq and The Girlfriend, will determine whether it crosses this mark. Produced on a budget of approximately ₹25 crore, the movie still needs significant earnings to recover its production costs and turn profitable.
