Chhaava, featuring Vicky Kaushal as the valiant Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, has stormed into theatres with remarkable momentum.
The much-anticipated historical drama Chhaava, featuring Vicky Kaushal as the valiant Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, has stormed into theatres with remarkable momentum. As projected, the film wrapped up its day 1 advance booking with an impressive gross of 13.85 crore (excluding blocked seats), making it the third-highest pre-sales figure for a film in India in 2025.
Maharashtra Leads the Charge
The buzz surrounding Chhaava has been particularly electrifying in Maharashtra, where the historical and cultural significance of the film has resonated deeply with audiences. The state alone contributed 8.40 crore gross in ticket sales, thanks to overwhelming enthusiasm and strong word-of-mouth. With nearly 3,400 shows lined up, Maharashtra has undoubtedly been the driving force behind the film’s exceptional pre-sales numbers.
Nationwide Impact
While Maharashtra recorded a phenomenal response, other regions showed fair to decent performance. Still, the nationwide support pushed the film to cross 4.88 lakh tickets sold for its opening day across India.
Ranking Among 2025’s Biggest Openers
With a 13.85 crore gross, Chhaava stands strong as the third-highest day 1 advance booking of 2025, outshining:
- Sankranthiki Vasthunam (12.40 crore gross)
- Daaku Maharaaj (9.10 crore gross)
It now sits just behind Ram Charan’s Game Changer (31.60 crore gross) and Ajith Kumar’s Vidaamuyarchi (18.40 crore gross), marking an extraordinary achievement for Bollywood this year.
A Personal Milestone for Vicky Kaushal
This opening day performance is poised to be a career-best for Vicky Kaushal. Additionally, Chhaava is set to claim the title of Bollywood’s biggest February opener and the highest Valentine’s Day opening, surpassing Gully Boy‘s record of 19.40 crore net.
The Road Ahead
With such a solid foundation, all eyes are now on the film’s day 1 box office collections and its weekend trajectory. If the audience’s initial response is anything to go by, Chhaava might continue its victorious run well beyond expectations.
