Chhaava Box Office Collection Day 20: Vicky Kaushal starrer has crossed the ₹490 crore mark at the box office in India after releasing on February 14. The historical period drama based on the life and valour of Chhatrapati Sambhaji is currently the 11th highest-grossing film at the domestic box office and will look to enter the top 10.
On Tuesday, due to the India vs Australia Champions Trophy semi-final, the biz of Chhaava was affected. Its total in 19 days stood at ₹484.70 crore. On Wednesday, the biz bounced back slightly as the film minted over ₹5.50 crore, more than the Tuesday collections, taking its India figures to over ₹490 crore mark. However, it will only breach the ₹500 crore mark on its fourth weekend.
Chhaava has another advantage as no other big releases are coming up in March. The Holi slot is only occupied by John Abraham’s The Diplomat. Chhaava will look to reap the benefits of ist continued solo run in the coming days.
Amid the film’s glorious run at the ticket window, a special screening of Chhaava was held for the MLAs and MLCs in Mumbai. CM Devenfdra Fadnavis called Chhaava “a very beautiful movie”.
“Those who wrote history did a lot of injustice to Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, but through this movie, his valour, bravery, cleverness, intelligence, knowledge, all these aspects of his life are coming in front of the public. And the way Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj continuously protected Swarajya after Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, his sacrifice is coming in front of the people through this. I would like to congratulate the producers of this film and the entire team,” the CM shared.
