Raja Shivaji Day 19 Box Office Collection: Earns 1.30 Cr; Needs Just 3 Cr to Beat Sairat and Become No. 1 Marathi Movie

Raja Shivaji is showing remarkable staying power as it nears the end of its third week in theaters. Usually, biographical dramas see a sharp decline by this stage, but the film managed a surprising 13 percent growth on its 19th day. On Tuesday, it collected a net of 1.30 crore in India, which is a noticeable step up from the 1.15 crore it earned on Monday. This mid-week uptick suggests that the movie is still finding a audience even after nearly three weeks of release.

This latest performance brings the total India net collection to 87.00 crore. When looking at the gross domestic figures, the film has successfully breached the 100 crore milestone, currently standing at 102.90 crore. These results have been achieved through an extensive theatrical run consisting of 78,615 shows across the country since the opening day. On Tuesday alone, the film maintained a presence across 2,152 shows, showing that exhibitors still have significant confidence in the title.

The Marathi version remains the primary driver of this success, contributing 1.10 crore on Day 19 with a solid 26 percent occupancy across 1,383 shows. The Hindi version added another 0.20 crore from 769 shows, holding a steady occupancy of 13 percent. In the Marathi heartlands, Mumbai and Pune are performing consistently. Mumbai recorded 29.8 percent occupancy over 334 shows, with night screenings peaking at 46 percent. Pune followed closely with 29.3 percent occupancy over 278 shows, also seeing its highest engagement of 42 percent during the late-night slots.

In the Hindi-speaking regions, Surat and Ahmedabad are showing better traction than the North. Surat saw 20 percent occupancy across 66 shows, while Ahmedabad managed 16.8 percent over 65 shows. Both cities saw their strongest numbers during the night shows, peaking at 37 percent and 33 percent respectively. The National Capital Region had a more modest day, recording 10.8 percent occupancy across 47 shows.

The performance within the national multiplex chains remains a steady contributor to the daily totals. On Tuesday, the three major chains recorded a total of 10,210 ticket sales across 587 shows, resulting in a gross of 13.04 lakh with an overall occupancy of 8.30 percent. Breaking this down, PVR moved approximately 3,960 tickets across 218 shows, while INOX followed with about 3,840 tickets from 230 shows. Cinepolis accounted for roughly 2,410 tickets across 139 shows. These figures indicate that the film is still a viable choice for urban audiences visiting premium theaters.

Digital booking trends also reflect this late-stage growth. According to BookMyShow data, ticket sales jumped from 38.92 thousand on Monday to 45.15 thousand on Tuesday. To date, the platform has processed a total of 23,78,130 ticket bookings for the film. This high volume of online transactions highlights the sustained interest in the historical narrative among the digitally-active audience.

On the global stage, Raja Shivaji added another 0.10 crore from international markets on Day 19. This brings the total overseas gross to 4.10 crore. When we combine the domestic and international performances, the total worldwide gross collection now stands at 107.00 crore. As the film approaches the end of its third week, the focus remains on whether it can maintain this momentum to finish as one of the most successful biographical films in its category.
