Vicky Kaushal’s historical drama Chhaava has done the unexpected. Directed by Laxman Utekar, the film has officially crossed the ₹600 crore mark at the Indian box office. This achievement makes it the third Hindi film to join this elite club, following Stree 2 and Pushpa 2, which released in 2024.
Chhaava’s Remarkable Journey
Despite newer films entering the theaters, Chhaava continues to pull in audiences. Over the weekend, it collected ₹30 lakhs, helping it break the ₹600 crore barrier. The film released in February 2025 and has been running strong for over two months.
Film analyst Taran Adarsh called Chhaava an “All Time Blockbuster”, celebrating the film’s huge success on social media. Its consistent performance shows that audience interest remains high, even after several weeks.

Kesari Chapter 2: Building Momentum
Starring Akshay Kumar, R. Madhavan, and Ananya Panday, Kesari Chapter 2 opened with decent numbers but gained speed over the weekend. The courtroom drama earned ₹11.70 crore on Sunday, taking its first weekend total to ₹29.62 crore.
The movie performed best in Mumbai, Delhi, NCR, Bengaluru, and Pune, while other cities like Lucknow, Ahmedabad, and Bhopal also showed noticeable growth. Analysts say the film needs to sustain its pace on Monday, which will be crucial for its overall success. With no major releases until May 1, Kesari Chapter 2 has a good chance to climb further.
Jaat: Strong Hold in Mass Markets
Sunny Deol’s Jaat may not be leading in metro cities, but it has become a favorite in tier 2 and tier 3 markets. The film has crossed ₹75 crore in its second week. Even though Kesari Chapter 2 affected its performance in urban multiplexes, Jaat continues to perform well among mass audiences.
Sunday delivered the best numbers in its second weekend, proving the film still connects strongly with its core audience. This success is especially impressive considering the competition it faced.
Sikandar’s Performance
While Sikandar was released alongside Kesari Chapter 2 and Jaat, it has struggled to match their pace. The film is receiving moderate response and hasn’t yet made a significant impact at the box office. More detailed figures are awaited to understand its standing.
In Summary
- Chhaava crosses ₹600 crore, becomes the third Hindi film to do so after Stree 2 and Pushpa 2.
- Kesari Chapter 2 earns ₹29.62 crore in its first weekend, needs strong weekday performance.
- Jaat hits ₹75 crore in two weeks, especially popular in non-metro areas.
