Chhaava worldwide box office collection
Sacnilk reported that Chhaava nearly doubled its daily domestic net collection between Friday and Saturday, going from ₹23.5 crore on Friday to ₹44 crore on Saturday. The impressive jump allowed the film to reach ₹286.75 crore net ( ₹343 crore gross) in the domestic market in just nine days. In addition, Chhaava has also earned over $6 million ( ₹50 crore) overseas, taking its worldwide collection to a more-than-healthy ₹393 crore in 9 days. Trade sources say that the film has crossed the ₹400 crore mark with just the morning show earnings on Sunday, but a final figure will come in by the end of the day.
With its ₹393 crore haul, Chhaava has now climbed a few spots in the list of highest-grossing Indian films ever. In just 9 days, it has surpassed the lifetime collections of several hits, including recent blockbusters like Fighter ( ₹344 crore), Singham Again ( ₹360 crore), and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 ( ₹389 crore). It also surpassed another historical action film based on a Maratha warrior. Ajay Devgn and Saif Ali Khan's Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior had earned ₹368 crore in 2020. Chhaava has now crossed that mark, too.
