The Hindi film “Chhaava,” starring Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandanna, has emerged as a massive box office success, crossing the ₹500 crore mark in India. The Telugu version, which debuted in theaters last Friday, also performed exceptionally well in its opening weekend.
With “Chhaava” achieving this milestone, Rashmika has become the only actress recently to have three Hindi films surpassing ₹500 crore in India. The other two are “Pushpa 2” (₹800 Cr in India for the Hindi version) and “Animal” (₹555 Cr in India for the Hindi version).
This remarkable achievement has solidified her position as one of the top actresses in the country.

Rashmika scores diverse hits
Rashmika’s ability to portray diverse roles with ease has played a key role in her success. Whether it’s the raw and fierce portrayal in “Pushpa 2,” the layered and compelling role in “Animal,” or the historical grandeur of “Chhaava,” Rashmika has consistently proven her versatility. Her screen presence, natural expressions, and ability to connect with the audience make her one of the most bankable stars in Indian cinema today.
The narrative of “Chhaava,” centered around the historical and patriotic themes of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and his son Sambhaji, has resonated deeply with audiences, further boosting the film’s success.
