Ajay Devgn starrer Raid opened on a decent note and got the occupancy rate of 15-20% in the morning shows. However it later picked up business in the evening and night shows.
After
the
stupendous
success
of
Golmaal
Again
last
year,
Ajay

This
time,
it's
based
on
a
real
life
story
and
has
him
playing
the
role
of
an
IT
officer
who
wages
a
war
against
black
money.
The
film
received
a
positive
word
of
mouth
from
the
critics.

post

onwards...Evening/
night

start
for
a
non-masala,
realistic

is
heartening...Strong

Sun...Fri

Speaking
about

Earlier
Kajol
who
watched
the
film
gave
her
review
on
Twitter
by
posting,
"My
review
of
Raid:-
Loved
it.
Laughed,
clapped
and
wanted
to
take
Amma
home
with
me!"
If
Kajol
loved
the
film,
Raid
gave
some
gyaan
to
their
son.
She
further
wrote,
"Yugs
review:-
I
learnt
about
income
tax!"
While
speaking
about
his
role,
Ajay
had
told
a
leading
daily,
"The
character
is
very
heroic
but
the
struggle
was
that
it
is
a
real
character.
So
we
had
to
make
a
conscious
effort
to
keep
it
real.
Even
if
he
has
to
say
a
punch
line
it
should
look
like
it
is
said
by
a
real
person.
We
have
done
our
best
to
portray
the
character
as
realistically
as
possible,
but
now
time
will
tell
if
the
audience
will
like
it."
Well
Ajay,
you
need
not
worry
for
the
audience
has
already
given
a
thumbs
up
to
your
role!
