New Delhi: After a rather slow start at the Box Office, Arjun Kapoor starrer Panipat has picked up the pace at the Box Office. The period drama was released on the same day as Kartik Aaryan's Pati Patni Aur Woh.
Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to Twitter and wrote, "#Panipat shows an upward trend on Day 2... #Maharashtra [#Mumbai circuit especially] is performing best... Needs to cover lost ground on Day 3, especially in circuits with a strong presence of multiplexes... Fri 4.12 cr, Sat 5.78 cr. Total: ₹ 9.90 cr. #India biz."
