Chandu Champion struggled in its first week with collections of 34 crore nett with basically the weekdays just not being a good enough with low collections. The film has not fared well like so many films post the pandemic but the difference here is that from day one but there is an attempt to call this film a good film through the media despite its impending fate which the trailer itself sort of said and the reports on day one compounded that.  . 

This used to happen a lot of before the pandemic but is less frequent now and the last time this happened with a major film which did not work with the audience but was attempted to be made out to be a good film was 83 and and now its Chandu Champion. The audience is mandate is pretty clear for both films and its not about being good but probably which is worse.

In the case of 83 it was not just the media but the industry also going crazy over a film which was on course to become a disaster. Here its more the media than the industry so some sense maybe coming in here as its probably the only industry in India where so may FLOP films are called good. The industry is at its worst point ever and things will hardly get better if bad cinema is thought to be good cinema.

There is Munjya running alongside Chandu Champion which clearly spells it out and if Chandu Chanpion is good cinema then Munjya can probably be called an All Time Classic or a Sholay of the modern era. Also the first week box office of Chandu Champion comes with the various methods to push it up which is not just the problem with this film but with so many post the pandemic and without this aid the collections would have been even lower. The daily collections of Chandu Champion till date are below..
