The political thriller Ajey, a biopic based on the life of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, has captured the audience’s attention with its gripping narrative. Starring Anant V Joshi, the film offers an engaging portrayal of CM Yogi’s journey, highlighting his political rise and personal story.

Slow Start, Strong Sunday

Despite its long-awaited release, Ajey had a modest opening at the box office, facing stiff competition from films like Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi’s Jolly LLB 3. The first two days saw limited earnings, but the film witnessed a surprising surge on Sunday, indicating growing interest among viewers.
