Raja Shivaji Day 13: Hits 75 Crore Net; Riteish Deshmukh Smashes Ved Record As Global Gross Reaches 89 Crore

Raja Shivaji is nearing the end of its second week at the box office, and the film continues to show its strength in specific markets. On its 13th day, which was the second Wednesday, the movie collected 1.90 crore net in India. This represents a 24 percent drop from the 2.50 crore it earned on Tuesday, which is a fairly standard trend for mid-week screenings. With this latest addition, the total India net collection has officially crossed the 75 crore milestone, standing at exactly 75.05 crore so far.

The Marathi version remains the primary engine behind the film's success. On day 13, the Marathi screenings contributed 1.40 crore from 1,855 shows with a healthy 18 percent occupancy. In comparison, the Hindi version brought in 0.50 crore from 1,915 shows with an 8 percent occupancy. Looking at the total language-wise split since release, the Marathi version has grossed 53.15 crore net, while the Hindi version has added 21.90 crore to the total. This highlights the movie's massive appeal in its home region.

Regional occupancy data shows exactly where the film is resonating most. In the Marathi market, Pune recorded a strong overall occupancy of 20.5 percent across 358 shows, while Mumbai maintained 14.3 percent occupancy with 481 shows. Night shows in Pune were particularly busy, peaking at 26 percent. In the Hindi market, the National Capital Region and Ahmedabad saw overall occupancy levels of about 6 percent, indicating a more selective audience in those regions. Across all versions, the film held on to 3,770 shows on Wednesday.

National cinema chains have also provided a consistent flow of audience. On Wednesday, PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis sold a combined total of roughly 8,020 tickets. Specifically, PVR accounted for approximately 3,090 tickets, followed closely by INOX with 3,190 tickets. Cinepolis contributed another 1,740 tickets to the daily tally. These figures match the steady trajectory seen throughout the second week, showing that the movie still has a reliable multiplex audience despite being nearly two weeks old.

The ticket sales data on BookMyShow further illustrates the movie's massive reach. Total ticket sales on the platform have now officially crossed the 2 million mark, standing at 2,035,810 tickets. After a huge first week where 1.22 million tickets were sold, the second week has seen a logical tapering of numbers. Daily sales in the second week started at 109K on Friday and adjusted to 44.41K by Wednesday. When you include the 217K pre-sale tickets, it is clear that Raja Shivaji has been one of the most consistent performers in terms of digital bookings this year.

What is truly remarkable about this run is that Raja Shivaji has already entered the elite list of all-time Marathi blockbusters, and it hasn't even been a month since its release. With a worldwide gross of 89 crore, it has already comfortably surpassed the lifetime worldwide collection of Ved (73 crore) and is on the verge of overtaking Baipan Bhari Deva (91 crore). While its India net collection still trails slightly behind these hits, that is largely due to the film's dual-language release strategy. Unlike the previous record-holders, Raja Shivaji has a steady Hindi version, which has helped push its global numbers much faster. At this current pace, it is only a matter of time before it claims the top spot on the worldwide leaderboard for the genre.

Taking a step back to look at the bigger picture, the total India gross collection, which includes taxes, has reached 88.88 crore. The film has successfully navigated the mid-week hurdle and is now positioned to add more to its tally over the upcoming third weekend. The consistent performance in the Marathi belt and the steady multiplex interest suggest that Raja Shivaji will continue to be a significant player at the box office for the remainder of its theatrical run.
