Chandu Champion Box Office Day 3: Kartik Aaryan's Film Poised For Major Leap

Chandu Champion Box Office Collection Day 3 Prediction: Kartik Aaryan has ample reasons to be pleased today. His recent release, "Chandu Champion," marks his first collaboration with filmmaker Kabir Khan and has been well-received. For those unaware, "Chandu Champion" is a sports biographical drama based on India's first Paralympic gold medallist, Murlikant Petkar. The film also features Bhuvan Arora, Yashpal Sharma, Rajpal Yadav, Aniruddh Dave, and Vijay Raaz in significant roles.

"Chandu Champion" generated considerable interest, particularly due to Kartik's impressive transformation as he portrays the inspiring story of Murlikant Petkar. Notably, this Kabir Khan directorial received rave reviews from the audience, with fans calling it Kartik's best performance to date. Despite the buzz, the movie recorded an opening day collection of Rs 4.75 crores, making it Kartik's lowest opener in seven days.

However, "Chandu Champion" saw a decent increase during the opening weekend. According to a report published in Sacnilk, the Kartik Aaryan starrer earned Rs 6.75 crores yesterday (day 2/first Saturday), bringing the overall collections of the film to Rs 11.50 crores. Given this trend, "Chandu Champion" is likely to see another rise in numbers and is expected to earn Rs 6-8 crores as it approaches the Rs 20 crores mark at the box office.

Discussing "Chandu Champion," Kartik told Variety, "A lot of preparation was required for the skill sets and body transformation; one needs a lot of patience and mental balance. I had never been in this situation - I was doing romantic films or comedy films. But this was the first time that I was doing something like this where I had to do a war sequence, I had to do wrestling and whatnot. I was intrigued by what Murlikant Petkar's thought process would be. And Kabir-sir always told me that it's all about willpower. And that's the one line of the film also - the man who refused to surrender basically, in any circumstances in any given situation, no matter how hard or tough it is."
