Raja Shivaji Day 11 Box Office: Nets Rs. 2.40 Cr; Marathi Net Hits Historic 50 Cr Milestone as Hindi Version Sets a Record 20 Cr Mark
Raja Shivaji is currently navigating its second week with remarkable resilience, and Day 11 has brought with it a significant historical milestone for Marathi cinema. On its second Monday, the film collected a net of ₹2.40 crore across India. While this represents a 64.7 percent drop from Sunday's robust ₹6.80 crore, such a dip is expected as the film transitions from a heavy weekend into the working week. However, the bigger story lies in the cumulative totals, as the film’s total India net collection has now reached ₹70.65 crore. The most impressive feat of this run is the performance of the Marathi version, which is effectively carrying the film to record-breaking heights. As of today, the Marathi net collection stands at ₹49.90 crore—essentially hitting the ₹50 crore mark. This achievement places Raja Shivaji in an elite tier of Marathi cinema, making it only the third film in history to enter the 50-crore club. It now sits alongside the industry's greatest hits, trailing only Baipan Bhari Deva, which had a lifetime net of ₹76 crore, and Ved, which finished at ₹61 crore. Reaching this milestone in just 11 days suggests that the film is well on its way to challenging those top spots. When we look at the language-wise breakdown for Day 11, the contrast is stark. The Marathi version contributed ₹1.90 crore net from 1,856 shows, maintaining a healthy weekday occupancy of 23 percent. In comparison, the Hindi version brought in ₹0.50 crore net from 1,919 shows with a much lower occupancy of 9 percent. It is clear that while the film has a significant presence in the Hindi belt, the heart of its success remains firmly rooted in the Marathi-speaking audience, where the footfalls are significantly more consistent.

On its second Monday, BookMyShow saw another 75,500 tickets being booked, which pushes the total sales on the platform to a staggering 1.91 million. This puts Raja Shivaji on the doorstep of the massive 2 million ticket milestone, highlighting the widespread interest it continues to generate across the board. Over in the national multiplex chains, the movie maintained a decent hold by selling about 7,400 tickets. INOX saw the highest turnout with roughly 3,000 tickets, while PVR and Cinepolis added another 2,500 and 1,900 tickets, respectively. Together, these chains brought in a combined gross of about ₹17.5 lakh, proving that the film's appeal is holding steady across different theater formats. With the total India gross now standing at ₹83.80 crore, the film is steadily making its way toward the ₹100 crore worldwide milestone. Beyond the Marathi success, another major highlight is the performance of the Hindi version, which has now netted ₹20.75 crore. This is a significant breakthrough, as it is one of the first times a Marathi production has managed to breach the 20-crore mark with its Hindi dubbed version, proving that the story has successfully traveled beyond its home state. While the usual weekday drop is visible, the Marathi market continues to provide a solid floor. The coming days will be key to seeing how close the film can get to the lifetime records of Ved and Baipan Bhari Deva, but for now, Raja Shivaji has already cemented its place as one of the biggest success stories of the year.
