CHHAAVA collected a record 58 crore nett plus on its third weekend as it comfortably scored over the third weekend numbers of PUSHPA 2 – THE RULE which were around 51 crore nett. The bigger task will be the third week record as the PUSHPA 2 – THE RULE had the Christmas factor over the weekdays. The Allu Arjun-starrer managed a huge 92 crore nett in week three. So, CHHAAVA needs to add another 35 crore nett to get the record which will be tough.
The film managed to go up on Sunday despite the cricket match but last week was India vs Pak and that probably makes the difference. This weekend, the growth was less on Saturday and it basically equals up. The film now stands at 439 crore nett as it beats the numbers of KGF – CHAPTER 2 and becomes the eight grosser in Hindi language.
This weekend ensures a 500 crore nett number for the film and now its probably about which position the film stands among the top three though footfalls will not reach the level of GADAR 2. Its looking at 525-550 crore nett at the moment but the film has all of March to rack up the numbers and the Ramadan period should not affect this film much.
The collections of CHHAAVA till date are as follows.
Week One – 2,08,89,00,000
Second Week – 1,71,76,00,000
Friday – 12,85,00,000 apprx
Saturday – 22,00,00,000 apprx
Sunday -23,50,00,000 apprx
Third Week – 58,35,00,000 apprx
TOTAL – 4,39,00,00,000 apprx

CHHAAVA saw its first noticeable drop on its third Monday as it dropped around 45% from the Friday. This is pretty normal but its looks a drop for this film considering how well its been maintaining till date. The film collected 7.25 crore nett on its third Monday which takes the number of the film to 446 crore nett in eighteen days.
The third week is now probably targeting a number of 82-83 crore nett which will be enough to keep the film on track for a 500 crore nett number sometime around Holi. But the drop probably means that the STREE 2 and JAWAN totals are safe and the film will end as up as the third highest nett grosser ever.
This film is on the verge of becoming the highest grossing film ever in the state of Maharashtra and that should be done by the end of the week. It is the second film after PUSHPA 2 – THE RULE to collect 200 crore nett in the state. The Mumbai circuit which includes Gujarat is unlikely to reach the levels of PUSHPA 2 – THE RULE mainly as because the business in Gujarat is far less.

CHHAAVA had another drop in business on Tuesday after the the first drop came on Monday. The film collected 5 crore nett on its third Tuesday which now takes the film to 451 crore nett. The third week stands at 70.50 crore nett and its likely to end up at 80 crore nett which is still the easily the highest ever for an original Hindi film.
The film will probably now stabilize at these lower levels and go on a run from here till Eid. It puts the numbers of STREE 2 and JAWAN out of reach but even after the collections on Monday, that was looking very unlikely. The lifetime business of the film looks to be finishing in the 500-525 crore nett range.
