Vicky Kaushal’s ‘Chhaava’ Nears 700 Crore Mark Worldwide, Set to Become His Biggest Hit
Vicky Kaushal’s latest film, Chhaava, is creating waves at the box office, both in India and overseas. The historical drama, which has completed 20 days in theatres, is inching closer to the 700 crore mark worldwide. If it achieves this milestone, Chhaava will become Vicky Kaushal’s highest-grossing film, surpassing his previous hits like Uri: The Surgical Strike and Sanju.
The film, which tells the story of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, has been praised for its gripping narrative, powerful performances, and grand visuals. Directed by Laxman Utekar, Chhaava has struck a chord with audiences, especially in Maharashtra, where the historical figure holds immense significance.
Box Office Performance in India
In India, Chhaava has been performing exceptionally well, particularly in Maharashtra and other Hindi-speaking regions. The film opened with a strong collection of 35 crores on its first day and has maintained steady numbers over the weeks. As of Day 20, the domestic box office collection stands at around 450 crores.
The film’s success can be attributed to its strong word-of-mouth publicity and the growing interest in historical dramas. Vicky Kaushal’s portrayal of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj has been widely appreciated, with critics and audiences alike calling it one of his best performances to date.
Overseas Success
Chhaava is not just a hit in India; it’s also making waves internationally. The film has collected over 200 crores from overseas markets, with significant contributions from the US, UK, UAE, and Australia. The overseas collection is expected to cross 250 crores soon, pushing the worldwide total closer to the 700 crore mark.
This is a significant achievement for Vicky Kaushal, as it marks his first film to perform so well on a global scale. The actor, who has been steadily building his career with diverse roles, is now being hailed as one of the most bankable stars in Bollywood.
Why Chhaava Stands Out
One of the key reasons behind Chhaava’s success is its focus on storytelling. The film doesn’t rely solely on action or drama; instead, it delves deep into the life and struggles of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, offering a fresh perspective on a lesser-explored chapter of Indian history.
The film’s music, composed by Ajay-Atul, has also played a crucial role in its success. Songs like Shivaji Maharaj Ki Jai and Sambhaji Raje have become anthems, adding to the film’s appeal.
Vicky Kaushal’s Rising Stardom
With Chhaava, Vicky Kaushal has cemented his position as one of the most versatile actors in Bollywood. Known for his dedication and ability to immerse himself in his roles, Vicky has once again proven his mettle. His performance in Chhaava is being compared to his iconic role in Uri: The Surgical Strike, which earned him a National Award.
The film’s success also highlights the growing trend of historical dramas in Bollywood. After the success of films like Tanhaji and Panipat, audiences are showing a keen interest in stories rooted in Indian history. Chhaava has tapped into this trend and delivered a film that is both entertaining and educational.
What’s Next for Vicky Kaushal?
With Chhaava set to become his highest-grossing film, Vicky Kaushal is now gearing up for his next projects. The actor has a busy schedule ahead, with films like Sam Bahadur and The Great Indian Family in the pipeline. If Chhaava is any indication, Vicky’s future projects are likely to be just as successful.
Final Thoughts
Chhaava is more than just a film; it’s a celebration of Indian history and culture. With its stellar performances, gripping narrative, and impressive box office numbers, the film has set a new benchmark for historical dramas in Bollywood. As it nears the 700 crore mark, Chhaava is a testament to Vicky Kaushal’s talent and the audience’s love for meaningful cinema.
