'Tanhaji' clashed at the box office with Deepika Padukone's 'Chhapaak', which, despite earning rave reviews, failed to impress the audiences. 

The film stars Ajay Devgn in the lead role of Tanhaji Malusare, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's commander. Kajol plays his wife Savitribai Malusare while Saif Ali Khan stars as the antagonist Uday Bhan, a Rajput official, who works for Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb.

'Tanhaji' is directed by Om Raut. The film is produced by Ajay Devgn's ADF and Bhushan Kumar's T-Series.

'Tanhaji' was recently declared tax-free in Maharashtra.
