Box Office: Tanhaji scores a century, Chhapaak remains steady

Ajay Devgn's Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior becomes the first film of 2020 to cross the 100-crore mark at the box-office, Deepika Padukone's Chhapaak remains steady.

Ever since the trailer of Ajay Devgn and Saif Ali Khan's Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior came out, fans wanted to witness this epic battle on the big screen and that too in 3D. The grandeur in the visuals was further elevated due to the third dimension and you couldn't help but feel aroused at the action and the thunderous background music.

Good thing even critics praised the narrative, the scale, and the performances of all the actors. This is the very reason why this Om Raut directorial is going great guns at the box-office. For the uninitiated, this was Devgn's 100th film and it has now entered the 100-crore club in a span of just six days.

Taking to his Twitter account, Taran Adarsh wrote how the film's Day 6 is higher than Day 1, 4, and 5. Terrific trending on weekdays indicates the power of solid content. Take a look at how much the film has collected so far:
