Filmmaker Kabir Khan created Chandu Champion, featuring Kartik Aaryan in the protagonist’s role. This film was released on June 14 and revolves around the life of Murlikant Petkar, India’s first Paralympic gold medalist. Aroh Welankar and Aniruddh Dave also play significant characters in this sports drama. While the movie had a decent opening at the box office, it gained significant traction in the following two days. On the fourth day, the film collected a net amount of 5 Crores, which is equivalent to its first day’s earnings.
Based on initial calculations provided by box office trackers, Chandu Champion reportedly grossed around 5 crores net on its fourth release day. Consequently, Kartik Aaryan’s movie’s overall number for an extended weekend is 28 Crore Net. The trade experts anticipated that the movie would utilize the holiday advantage on Monday and would collect nearly a double-digit number in India. Still, Chandu Champion could only achieve half of it. However, it is worth mentioning that the film directed by Kabir Khan can thrive at the box office if it can maintain the same consistency for another two weeks.
The film draws inspiration from a true story that portrays the remarkable and fantastical life of Murlikant Petkar, a soldier and athlete who secured India’s first-ever Paralympic gold medal in 1972. His outstanding achievements and extraordinary path to triumph were concealed from the public until he decided to embrace the acknowledgment and respect he rightfully deserved. After Chandu Champion’s theatrical run ends, the movie will be released digitally on a streaming service. Rumors circulate that the sports drama will debut on Amazon Prime Video. However, the producers have yet to confirm this information officially. As of now, the exact OTT release date for the film remains uncertain.
