Sharing the same, film critique Taran Adarsh tweeted: "'Article 15' has a decent Day 1... Gathered speed towards evening shows, after a dull start in the morning. Should witness an upward trend/substantial growth on Day 2... Metros are driving the business and high-end multiplexes will contribute largely."
