Paresh Rawal's film *The Taj Story* had a respectable opening weekend, grossing over ₹5 crore, with Sunday as its highest earning day at ₹2.21 crore. However, by Day 5, the box office collections showed a significant dip, with estimates ranging from ₹0.06 crore to ₹0.30 crore on Tuesday, bringing the total five-day collection to between ₹5.7 crore and ₹8.5 crore according to various reports. The film faced challenges sustaining weekday footfall due to mixed reviews on pacing and limited mass appeal, despite strong performances and ongoing discussions about its political-legal courtroom drama theme. It remains a subject of conversation that might stabilize if positive word-of-mouth emerges in the coming days[1][2][3][8][15]. Before release, the film encountered controversy with Public Interest Litigations alleging distortion of historical facts about the Taj Mahal, which led to legal hurdles. Paresh Rawal clarified that the film was research-based and not intended to incite division[2][4][6]. Box office daywise estimates (approximate net figures): - Day 1 (Friday): ₹1 crore - Day 2 (Saturday): ₹1.8–2.25 crore - Day 3 (Sunday): ₹2.21–2.65 crore - Day 4 (Monday): ₹1–1.25 crore - Day 5 (Tuesday): ₹0.06–0.30 crore Total five-day collections vary by source, ranging roughly between ₹5.7 crore to ₹8.5 crore[1][3][5][15]. The film's courtroom drama revolves around an Agra tourist guide challenging the accepted history of the Taj Mahal's construction through a petition, blending legal, historical, and emotional narrative elements[6][16].
