Riteish Deshmukh's film Raja Shivaji started strong at the box office, earning ₹11.35 crore on its opening day across 6,192 shows. By the end of its opening weekend, the film grossed ₹34 crore in India. However, it faced a significant downturn on its first Monday, with collections dropping to ₹5.60 crore, leading to a total gross of ₹46.95 crore and net earnings of ₹39.50 crore. The film's overall occupancy fell to 21.5% on Monday, with the Marathi version contributing ₹4.25 crore despite fewer shows compared to the Hindi release, which only garnered ₹1.35 crore from 3,410 shows. The Hindi version's performance is particularly disappointing given the star power of actors like Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan. As both Raja Shivaji and its competitor, Akshay Kumar's Bhooth Bangla, experience declining numbers, the future performance of Raja Shivaji remains uncertain, heavily relying on its regional audience.
