Padmaavat box office collections on day 1In some very good news for Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor and Ranveer Singh and Aditi Rao Hydari, cinemas, where no violence has happened, are reporting good business as footfalls have been heavy. In fact, in Delhi itself, a Theatre in Rajouri garden is witnessing a good turnout on the first day of Padmaavat release. According to the movie goers, they are very curious to know what the movie is all about and become the first among friends and family to find out. The common refrain was, ‘want to see the reason behind all that uproar’. Amid widespread protests around cinema halls by various fringe outfits in Haryana, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra, Padmaavat released in the theaters on January 25. Mired in controversy for its alleged “misrepresentations” and “distortion of facts,” the opulent period drama was supposed to hit the theaters on December 1 last year.
