Ajay Devgn's last hit was his film Shaitaan with actors R Madhavan and Jyotika. The film went on to earn Rs 148 crore nett in India. His multi-starrer film, Singham Again too earned whopping Rs 247.85 crore, but due to its enormous budget and his A-lister star cast, the film wasn't seen as a blockbuster.
With no new releases scheduled in the near future, it seems that Ajay Devgn's film will continue to hold its own in the upcoming week as well. This week, Rajkummar Rao's Bhool Chuk Maaf was scheduled for a theatrical release but the film will now get a direct OTT release next week.

Hari Hara Veera Mallu box office collection day 1 early report: Pawan Kalyan's action drama crosses Rs 18 cr mark; could become actor's biggest opener
Hari Hara Veera Mallu box office collection day 1 early report: Pawan Kalyan's action-adventure drama Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 – Sword vs Spirit, starring Pawan Kalyan in the lead role, finally hit theatres on July 24. Directed by Krish Jagarlamudi and AM Jyothi Krishna, the film has received a mixed response from critics. However, it opened to strong audience turnout on its first day. According to early estimates by industry tracker Sacnilk, the movie has already grossed Rs 18.68 crore at the box office. Based on early trends, Hari Hara Veera Mallu might even cross the Rs 20 crore mark. The film recorded an overall Telugu occupancy of 54.71% at the box office, with morning shows at 63.52% and afternoon shows at 45.89%. The highest theatre occupancy was reported in the Vijayawada region. Hari Hara Veera Mallu was also released in other languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. The Hindi version saw a 13.65% occupancy, followed by 11.24% in Malayalam, 10.59% in Kannada, and 9.54% in Tamil. Hari Hara Veera Mallu is expected to become Pawan Kalyan's biggest opener so far. The actor's 2022 film Bheemla Nayak earned Rs 56.5 crore at the worldwide box office. The movie is facing stiff competition from Bollywood releases such as Ahaan Panday's Saiyaara, and Hollywood films like David Corenswet starrer Superman and Marvel's The Fantastic 4: First Steps. ALSO READ | Pawan Kalyan says he hasn't abandoned Hari Hara Veera Mallu: 'Refrained from promoting films not out of arrogance, but…' An excerpt from SCREEN's review of Hari Hara Veera Mallu read, 'This is a film in which every element, from start to finish, is soaked in artifice and is completely devoid of the agency or emotional intelligence that one might even find in a regular school play. If the completely lacklustre visual effects are one issue, the narrative that piles on one exaggerated moment after another in the name of intensity makes the whopping 163-minute runtime feel almost punishing. The problem lies not just in the film's gaze, but more so in the uninspired visual realisation of the story. Despite the services of seasoned cinematographers Gnana Shekar VS (Krish Jagarlamudi's long-time collaborator) and Manoj Paramahamsa, the visual palette only makes a fleeting impression while the production design mostly resembles a theme-park version of history.' Hari Hara Veera Mallu also features Bobby Deol, Nidhhi Agerwal, Nargis Fakhri, Nora Fatehi and Sathyaraj in pivotal roles. The period drama will be released in two parts, and the second part will be called Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 2 – Battlefield.
