Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava is roaring at the box office.
Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava continues its stellar run at the box office, registering an impressive Rs 24 crore on its fourth day. The historical action film, which sees Kaushal portraying Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, has now amassed Rs 140.50 crore India net within four days of release, according to Sacnilk.com.
Directed by Laxman Utekar and produced by Dinesh Vijan under Maddock Films, Chhaava delves into the Maratha ruler’s fierce rivalry with Aurangzeb, played by Akshaye Khanna. The film opened to a strong start on Valentine’s Day, collecting Rs 31 crore on its first day. By the end of its opening weekend, it had garnered Rs 116.5 crore in India.
With these figures, Chhaava has already become Utekar’s highest-grossing opening weekend film, surpassing his 2019 romantic comedy Luka Chuppi, which earned Rs 88.50 crore in its entire run. Rashmika Mandanna stars alongside Kaushal in the epic period drama.
News18 Showsha rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars, praising Vicky Kaushal’s powerful performance. The review stated, “Bringing to life the character of Chhaava is a roaring Vicky Kaushal, who, through his portrayal of the king, makes you bow down to his acting skills. He walks, talks, and breathes like Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj.” The review also lauded Akshaye Khanna’s transformation as Aurangzeb, stating, “Khanna makes you believe that he is indeed Aurangzeb. The actor has gone through a tremendous makeover, and it is safe to state that no one else could have done justice to the character like Khanna did in the film.”
With strong word-of-mouth and positive critical reception, Chhaava is expected to continue its dominance at the box office in the coming days.
