Main Atal Hoon, starring Pankaj Tripathi, had a mediocre first two days at the box office. The first Saturday brought in ₹1.80 crore for Ravi Jadhav's biopic of former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The movie made ₹1.15 crore on the day of its release. Thus, the total amount collected is ₹2.95 crore.

In the movie, actor Pankaj Tripathi plays the late Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Ravi Jadhav directed the film, which hit theaters this Friday, 19th January. The film is a biopic on Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who was conferred with the country's highest civilian honor, the Bharat Ratna.

With all due honesty, Pankaj Tripathi brought Atal Bihari Vajpayee's life on the big screen yet the box office results did not reflect this. The movie is struggling at the box office, collecting very little revenue. It shouldn't have been a problem for the movie to shine with great numbers because there weren't any big releases this weekend, but that didn't happen. The movie will undoubtedly have a harder time during the week if its weekend box office performance is weak. Let's now see if the good reviews translate into a long run at the box office for the movie.
