5 Key Factors Driving Chhaava’s Success

Key Factor	Details
Historic Opening for Vicky Kaushal	Chhaava marks Vicky’s career-best opening, eclipsing URI: The Surgical Strike (₹8.2 Cr) and Sam Bahadur (₹6.25 Cr). The film also holds the third-highest ticket sales on BookMyShow (BMS) for a Hindi film, trailing only Animal and Gadar 2.
Regional Dominance	Maharashtra Contribution: 60–70% of earnings, fueled by cultural resonance with Maratha history. Pune’s Record Occupancy: 89.25% on Day 2, reflecting localized appeal.
Clash with Captain America: Brave New World	Despite Marvel’s global fanbase, Chhaava outperformed in advance bookings and daytime shows.
Critical Acclaim	Critics praised Vicky’s “career-defining performance” and AR Rahman’s score.
Budget vs. Returns	Made on a ₹130 Cr budget, the film needs ₹200 Cr+ for a “Hit” verdict. Current trends suggest it could break even by Week 2.

Maharashtra	₹45–50 Cr	89.25% (Pune)
Mumbai	₹18–20 Cr	74.75%
