Vicky Kaushal Becomes Bollywood’s New Superstar as Chhaava Crosses ₹598 Cr, Beats Stree 2, Sikandar & Jawan!

Vicky Kaushal is not just delivering hits anymore — he’s rewriting the rules of stardom in Bollywood! His magnum opus Chhaava, based on the life of the great Maratha warrior Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, has now officially become the second highest-grossing Hindi film of the year. With a staggering total of ₹598.45 crore at the box office by its 52nd day, Chhaava has dethroned Stree 2 and left behind biggies like Salman Khan’s Sikandar and Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan.

In an era where most films fizzle out within a week of release, Chhaava is marching forward with warrior spirit — continuing to dominate the box office even after 50+ days in theatres. On its eighth Sunday (Day 52), the film minted another ₹1.25 crore, according to Sacnilk, proving that audience love for Vicky’s historic portrayal is far from over.

From Underdog to Megastar: Vicky’s Rise is Real

There’s no denying it anymore — Vicky Kaushal has officially arrived as the new superstar of Bollywood. What makes this moment even more iconic is that Chhaava has outpaced some of the year’s most hyped releases. Salman Khan’s Sikandar, touted as an Eid blockbuster, and Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, which created early box office waves, have now fallen behind in lifetime collections.

Vicky’s grounded charm, stellar performances, and fearless script choices have transformed him from the industry’s promising talent into its most bankable lead. From the raw intensity of URI to the emotional depth of Sardar Udham, and now the grandeur of Chhaava, he’s proven his versatility across genres.

What’s Next? MAHAVTAR & Ek Jadugar Promise More Fire

Vicky isn’t stopping anytime soon. His next mega-project MAHAVTAR is already generating insane buzz — a spiritual action thriller set to explore the mysticism of Bharat’s ancient legends with a modern twist. He’ll also be seen in Ek Jadugar, a fantasy-drama where he steps into the shoes of a whimsical yet philosophical magician — a complete departure from anything we’ve seen him do before.

Both films are expected to push the boundaries of storytelling and VFX in Indian cinema, solidifying Vicky’s image as an actor who dares to be different, and succeeds.

Final Verdict: The Crown Has a New Owner

With Chhaava’s thundering success and a power-packed lineup ahead, it’s clear — Bollywood has found its new box office king in Vicky Kaushal. And this king doesn’t just reign — he rules with grace, grit, and grounded brilliance.

Brace yourselves (oops — no clichés!)... let’s just say: the Vicky Era has officially begun.
