Namaste Bollywood buffs! Your favorite Bollywood sleuth, Khabree Kiran, is back with a scoop that’s hotter than a spicy plate of pani puri!

Now, before we deep dive into the box office shenanigans, let’s just say this one’s a rollercoaster that’s got critics wagging their tongues and fans clapping their hands! 🎬🔥

The Box Office Kahani

Well, well, well, what do we have here? "Chhaava," directed by the talented Laxman Utekar, has been making waves since it hit the theaters. But it seems the tide’s taken a little dip, much like your mood when your chai gets cold! 😜 After a dhamakedar opening week, the movie’s pocketed a cool ₹24.50 crore on its fifth day. Not too shabby, huh? But hold on to your popcorn, because this marks a slight slowdown from the previous high-flying numbers. Day 4 saw a ₹24 crore collection, which, let’s face it, is a bit like when your favorite jalebi doesn’t quite hit the sugar high you were hoping for!

A Peek Behind the Curtains

Set against a grand historical backdrop, "Chhaava" unfolds the epic tale of Maratha king Sambhaji, with Vicky Kaushal donning the regal avatar. Joining him is Rashmika Mandanna as Maharani Yesubai, alongside Akshaye Khanna, Ashutosh Rana, and Divya Dutta. It’s like a full thali of talent, folks! 🍛 Adapted from the Marathi novel "Chhava" by Shivaji Sawant, the movie promises action, drama, and a sprinkle of Bollywood masala. 🎥

But, yaar, no movie is perfect! While the film attempts to pay tribute to the legendary Sambhaji, some say it suffers from thoda over-the-top heroics and editing blunders. But fear not, the music by maestro A. R. Rahman is here to save the day (and your ears)! 🎶

The Political Drama

In a twist worthy of a soap opera, the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has stepped in, urging Maharashtra’s CM Devendra Fadnavis to make "Chhaava" tax-free. Imagine watching Vicky’s valiant acts without burning a hole in your pocket! 🤑

Kiran’s Gyan: In Bollywood, history repeats itself, just like those endless remakes. But remember, whether it’s a blockbuster or a thanda flop, the show must always go on! So, grab your chai, sit back, and enjoy the filmi tamasha! 🎭

Stay tuned for more gossip, masti, and dhoom-dhadaka from your one and only Khabree Kiran! Until next time, keep the filmi khabar coming, and remember, life is too short for bad movies! 📽️💖
