Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandanna's film 'Chhawa' enjoyed a b 47-day run at the box office, but its reign seems to be ending. The release of 'Sikander' may leave a significant goal unmet for the film.
Entertainment Desk: Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandanna's historical film 'Chhawa,' which maintained a b hold at the box office for 47 days, now faces a challenging path. Released on February 14th, the film initially performed exceptionally well, earning significant revenue worldwide. However, the arrival of 'Sikander' has slowed 'Chhawa's' momentum, potentially preventing it from reaching the 600 crore club. Let's examine the impact of 'Sikander' on 'Chhawa's' box office performance and its latest collections.
Significant Drop in 'Chhawa's' Earnings on Day 48
While 'Chhawa' had maintained a b box office presence, its figures are now declining. On day 47, the film's collection unexpectedly dropped from crores to lakhs. On Wednesday, day 48, the film's earnings further decreased.
'Chhawa's' Box Office Collection So Far
• First 46 days: Dominated the box office with impressive earnings
• Day 47: ₹54 lakhs in Hindi, ₹10 lakhs in Telugu
• Day 48: Only ₹40 lakhs in Hindi, no earnings in Telugu
To date, the total collection stands at ₹579.43 crores in Hindi and ₹15.87 crores in Telugu. Overall, the film has achieved a net collection of ₹595.3 crores. However, with 'Sikander' now in theaters, reaching the 600 crore club seems challenging.
Which Dream of 'Chhawa' Did 'Sikander' Shatter?
'Chhawa' performed exceptionally well not only in India but also globally, grossing ₹799 crores worldwide. However, its domestic collection growth has slowed. The film needs only ₹5 crores more to join the 600 crore club, but 'Sikander's' release has shifted audience interest. Given the current pace, reaching the 600 crore mark appears difficult.
Can 'Chhawa' Still Regain Momentum?
Despite 'Chhawa's' remarkable collection and worldwide success, it remains to be seen whether its earnings will rebound in the coming days. If the film remains in theaters until the second weekend and manages to attract audiences again, its earnings could increase once more. Otherwise, 'Chhawa's' dream of joining the 600 crore club may remain unfulfilled.
