Ajay Devgn’s Box Office StrengthWith Raid 2, Ajay Devgn has once again reaffirmed his box office dominance. As the film heads into its fourth Sunday, all eyes are on whether it can push past the ₹160 crore milestone and sustain its momentum in the coming days.“A faithful sequel that wallows in self-admiration” - ETimes reviewOur review for the film reads, “Ajay Devgn and his sunglasses are intense. He portrays the old-school heroism with swag. He has a solid comic timing too. You wish that aspect was explored more here. The film has some clever one-liners too that mock the sycophants and the corrupt as it oscillates between no frills and old school dramatic storytelling. Raid 2 stays true to its theme, but it takes itself a bit too seriously.
