Chhaava Continues to Make Waves at the Box Office

In an impressive feat, Chhaava, featuring Bollywood talents Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandanna, has charged past the ₹225 crore mark in India with its net collections. By the close of Day 8, the film added another ₹7.11 crore to its tally, standing robustly at ₹226.36 crore. Despite the slower-than-expected increase in earnings on its second Friday, Chhaava remains the fastest release of 2025 to break the ₹200 crore threshold.

Directed by Laxman Utekar, Chhaava brings to life the dramatic tale of Maratha king Sambhaji Maharaj, inspired by the revered novel by Shivaji Sawant. The film also showcases the craftsmanship of Akshaye Khanna, who plays the role of Aurangzeb, adding depth to the narrative with his compelling performance.

Box Office Records and Expectations

The film's rapid rise to success has not gone unnoticed, setting multiple records along the way. It stands as Vicky Kaushal's second-highest earner in Hindi cinema and Rashmika Mandanna's third. Though there was a notable drop on Day 7, Chhaava is poised for a potentially strong turnout over the second weekend, exciting stakeholders and fans alike.

Produced by Maddock Films, this historical action drama intertwines grand storytelling with powerful performances, capturing audiences' interest across the nation. For those intrigued by the stories of historical figures, and for Bollywood enthusiasts in general, Chhaava promises not just action and drama, but also a deep dive into a part of Maratha history.
