the

is
an

of

Gummakonda-Payal
Rajput's

Tadap
began
its
box

journey
on
a
promising
note
when
it
minted
Rs
4

on
its
opening
day.
With
praises
pouring
in
for
debutante
Ahan's

and
good

up

4.05
crore
and
Rs
4.12
crore
on

A
trade
source
shared,
"Tadap
has
shown
a
way
better
response
than
one
would
have
expected
during
the
pandemic,
especially
after
films
with
renowned
stars
in
it,
like
Bunty
Aur
Babli
2
and
Satyamev
Jayate
2
did
not
manage
to
do
get
the
numbers
that
Tadap
has
achieved."
The
source
further
added,
"It
speaks
volumes
of
the
debutant,
Ahan
Shetty
to
rake
in
numbers
like
these
with
his
first
film.
If
the
film
would
have
released
at
a
normal
time,
it
definitely
would
have
earned
twice
as
much,
seeing
the
kind
of
reaction
it
has
got
even
now."
Earlier
in
a
chat
with
ETimes,
Ahan's
father
and
actor
Suniel
Shetty
had
opened
up
about
feeling
anxious
and
nervous
before
the
release
of
his
son's
debut
film.
Speaking
about
the
night
before
the
movie
hit
the
big
screens,
Suniel
had
shared,
"Ahan
and
my
wife
Mana
slept
last
night
but
Athiya
and
I
were
awake.
In
fact,
I
haven't
slept
for
the
past
three
weeks
ever
since
December
3
was
announced
as
the
release
date
of
Tadap.
I
was
nervous...
anxious
would
be
a
better
word.
I
was
constantly
hoping
that
he
gets
accepted,
especially
considering
the
fact
that
the
numbers
are
unpredictable
in
today's
times
of
COVID."
