Box office: Paresh Rawal's 'The Taj Story' in mint condition

Entertainment Nov 12, 2025

Paresh Rawal's latest, The Taj Story, picked up strongly over its opening weekend after a weak start but has hit a rough patch at the box office in its second week, dropping to just ₹17L on Tuesday—even with theater discounts.
Still, it's pulled in ₹16.37 crore so far, which is already double its budget and means the makers are in the clear profit-wise.

Competing films could spell trouble for 'The Taj Story'

Despite an early peak of ₹2.75 crore on Sunday, the film is now up against tough competition from movies like Thamma, Ek Deewane ke Deewaniyat, and Baahubali- The Epic. With De De Pyaar De 2 about to release, things could get even trickier.
Now everyone's watching to see if The Taj Story can hit that ₹20 crore milestone before heading to streaming platforms.
