Chhaava Breaks 2025 Box Office Records

Vicky Kaushal's historical drama 'Chhaava', directed by Laxman Utekar, has become a major box office success, earning Rs 219.75 crore domestically in its first week and Rs 270 crore globally. The film, based on the life of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, has received praise for its storytelling and performances, particularly those of Kaushal and Akshaye Khanna as Aurangzeb. 'Chhaava' achieved significant milestones, including being declared tax-free in Madhya Pradesh and breaking the record for the highest-grossing Indian film of 2025. The movie's success is attributed to its strong performance in Maharashtra, boosted by the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti holiday. Despite a minor drop on its first Monday, the film maintained strong daily earnings, indicating its continued dominance at the box office.
