For the unversed, 'Chandu Champion' is Kartik Aaryan's second-lowest weekend total since his debut film 'Pyar Ka Punchnama', that released in 2011. His 2023 release, 'Shehzada' collected Rs 20.20 crore at the end of its opening weekend. 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2', minted Rs 55.96 crore over its first weekend and 'Satyaprem Ki Katha' collected Rs 37.35 crore over the weekend.

'Chandu Champion' has received positive reviews from critics and audiences. Kartik has been raved for his performance as Murikant Petkar, India's first Paralympic Gold Medallist. Positive word of mouth is helping the movie in its collections. The movie is expected to witness a momentum in its collections on June 17 as it's an Eid holiday. So, it is likely to pass the Monday test.

Kartik Aaryan starrer will face a tough competition with Prabhas starrer 'Kalki 2898 AD' that is releasing on June 27.

Apart from Kartik Aaryan, 'Chandu Champion' also starred Vijay Raaz, Brijendra Kala, Rajpal Yadav, and Bhuvan Arora in key roles.
