Riteish Deshmukh’s ambitious Marathi epic **Raja Shivaji** is showing solid legs at the box office, and the numbers are telling a very interesting story. As of Day 9 (2nd Saturday), the film has grossed **₹72.25 crore** in India — and the momentum is pointing upward.

### What’s Working for Raja Shivaji?

On its 2nd Saturday, the film collected ₹6.75 crore — a strong 75% spike from the previous day, with a week-on-week drop of only around 45% compared to the opening Saturday. That kind of hold signals genuine audience word-of-mouth doing the heavy lifting.

The Marathi-Hindi language split stands at ₹50.50 crore and ₹21.75 crore (₹18 crore nett) respectively, showing the film’s core Marathi audience driving the bulk of collections.

The film is based on [Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shivaji) — the founder of the Maratha Empire — making it one of the most culturally significant Marathi films ever attempted.

### Can It Hit ₹100 Crore?

The second weekend is projected to add around ₹18 crore, pushing the total to ₹79–80 crore by Sunday, keeping the ₹100 crore milestone firmly within reach.

If achieved, it would become the highest-grossing Marathi film of all time, surpassing both *Sairat* and *Baipan Bhari Deva*, each pegged around ₹90 crore.

However, comparisons with *Tanhaji* (₹175 crore+ in Maharashtra in 2020) and *Chhaava* (₹300 crore+) — both films rooted in the Maratha Empire — show that Raja Shivaji, despite its cultural significance as a story told in the empire’s own language, is unlikely to match those pan-India heights.
