Box Office: Kartik Aaryan's 'Chandu Champion' Scored A Low First Week

Mumbai, June 21 - Kartik Aaryan-fronted biographical sports drama Chandu Champion has had a low first week, scoring 35+ crores net collection. The first-week collection of the movie is lower than the 2 weeks old horror-comedy Munjya's opening week collection which pretty much tells the story.

Directed by Kabir Khan, Chandu Champion opened to positive reviews and word of mouth but things didn't go the way makers would have hoped for after receiving rave reviews, and as a result, it performed below the expectations.



Post the COVID-19 pandemic, Chandu Champion has had the second lowest first-week scorer for Kartik Aaryan, ahead of just Shehzada which minted approximately 27.35 crores net first-week and 32 crores lifetime collection. Chandu Champion will need to perform well in the second week to go past the 50 crores net mark.

First week collection of Kartik Aaryan-starrer post pandemic -

1. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 - 92 crores net approx.



2. Satyaprem Ki Katha - 46.50 crores approx.

3. Chandu Champion - 35.25 crores approx.

4. Shehzada - 27.35 crores approx.

Produced by Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment and Kabir Khan Films, Chandu Champion is based on the life of India's first Paralympics gold medallist Murlikant Petkar, a man who faced one adversary after another with an undying spirit. His unwavering zeal and never-give-up attitude led to India's first individual gold medal in any form of the Olympics.
