On the other hand, Chhapaak featuring Deepika Padukone which released on relatively fewer screens than Tanhaji collected Rs 2.61 crores on Day 6.
Sharing Chhapaak‘s business, Taran Adarsh wrote, “#Chhapaak remains static on Day 6… Neither jumps, nor dips, despite partial holiday [#MakarSankranti festivities]… Fri 4.77 cr, Sat 6.90 cr, Sun 7.35 cr, Mon 2.35 cr, Tue 2.55 cr, Wed 2.61 cr. Total: ₹ 26.53 cr. #India biz.”
Chhapaak and Tanhaji released on the same day.
Both are based on real-life narratives, though their genres are completely different.
While Tanhaji is a period drama based on the life of Maratha war hero, Tanaji Malussare, Chhapaak is a contemporary film in the social realistic cinema genre and deals with the problem of acid attacks in India.
