This is Ajay\u2019s first release of 2025. In 2024, he was seen in Singham Again, Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha, Maidaan and Shaitaan. Of these four films, Shaitaan was seen as a clear hit as the film made around Rs 148 crore at the box office, after opening at around Rs 14.75 crore. Rohit Shetty\u2019s Singham Again, which also starred Ranveer Singh<\/a>, Akshay Kumar<\/a>, Kareena Kapoor<\/a>, Deepika Padukone<\/a> and many other stars, was built up as the \u2018Avengers of Rohit Shetty\u2019s cop universe\u2019 and made with a humungous budget<\/a> but its clash with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 proved disadvantageous for both films. Releasing on Diwali weekend, Singham Again made Rs 43.5 crore on opening day , and finished its run with a lifetime nett collection of Rs 248 crore.<\/p>\n

His other two releases of the year sank without a trace. Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha, directed by Neeraj Pandey, started its box office journey with just Rs 1.85 crore and managed to make only Rs 11.5 crore during its entire run. Maidaan, directed by Amit Sharma, started its box office journey with just Rs 2.6 crore, and made Rs 53 crore.<\/p>\n

Last week\u2019s Ground Zero, starring Emraan Hashmi<\/a>, has not managed to captivate the audience. Akshay Kumar\u2019s Kesari 2, which has been in the theatres for two weeks, earned Rs 1.8 crore on its 14th day. The film has made Rs 74.75 crore at the box office so far.<\/p>\n

Raid 2, directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, is a sequel of the 2018 film. The original film made around Rs 10 crore on its opening day and finished its run at around Rs 103 crore. It seems like Raid 2 could perform better than the original. Raid 2 does not have much competition at the screens currently.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
