Rajkummar Rao's 'Maalik' has earned a respectable Rs 21.14 crore in its first week, driven by positive word of mouth and Rao's fan base. The action drama is poised to enter the top 10 highest-grossing films of his career, potentially surpassing 'Roohi'. However, competition from 'Saiyaara' could impact its long-term box office performance.
