Mumbai, March 8 - Ajay Devgn-fronted supernatural thriller Shaitaan is off to a very good start at the box office. The Vikas Bahl's directorial, riding high on critics' reviews, surprises by exceeding trade expectations.

According to early estimates, Shaitaan scored around 14-15 crores net collection which is a very good start for a thriller genre. The movie showed signs of a good start through pre-sales but strong walk-ins throughout the day, especially in evening and night shows, pushed the collection to a very good level.



The traditional Friday release of the film benefitted from the Maha Shivratri holiday in some parts of the country. The very good opening has set the stage for the film for a fantastic weekend which could be around 55-60 crores net. The initial word of mouth is on the positive side.

Meanwhile, Yami Gautam-fronted Article 370 starts the third weekend with a good hold, scoring 1.50-1.75 crores net on its third Friday. The total collection stands at 59.50+ crores net after 15 days as the movie is looking to finish over the 70 crores mark.
