With Chhaava already collecting Rs 562.65 crore in India, the historical epic needs just Rs 35.34 crore more to surpass Stree 2‘s massive Rs 597.99 crore net collection. The big question now is whether the Vicky Kaushal-starrer can achieve this milestone before two major releases, L2E: Empuraan with Prithviraj and Mohanlal on March 27, and Sikandar, starring Salman Khan, on March 29.
Chhaava has demonstrated remarkable staying power, grossing impressive numbers since its release. However, the upcoming weeks will be crucial in determining whether it can sustain its momentum. While a ₹35.34 crore gap is not insurmountable, the film’s daily earnings will need to remain steady to achieve this target before the competition intensifies.
The arrival of L2E: Empuraan and Sikandar is a major challenge. Both films are highly anticipated and will command significant screen space across India. Prithviraj and Mohanlal’s Empuraan carries strong hype, especially in the South, while Sikandar is a Salman Khan film—historically a box-office juggernaut. With these two blockbusters releasing within a short gap, Chhaava’s box office hold will likely weaken.
If Chhaava continues to perform well in its current trend, it has a fair chance of crossing Rs 598 crore before March 27. However, if collections slow down due to audience fatigue or the pre-release buzz of Empuraan and Sikandar, the milestone might remain just out of reach. The next two weeks will be crucial, and all eyes will be on whether Chhaava can secure its place as the highest-grossing film before these new releases dominate the box office.
