Overview
- The Riteish Deshmukh‑directed epic began streaming on Netflix in Marathi and Hindi on Friday, June 26, 2026.
- The film completed a strong theatrical run after its May 1 release and producers Jio Studios have called it the highest‑grossing Marathi film, with reported worldwide totals ranging roughly between ₹115 crore and ₹130 crore.
- Box‑office trackers show slightly different tallies — Sacnilk reported ₹117.97 crore worldwide while other outlets cite totals up to about ₹129.7 crore — reflecting variation in how collections are measured and reported.
- Made on a reported budget of about ₹75 crore, Raja Shivaji is a rare big‑budget Marathi production that stars Deshmukh as Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and features a large ensemble including Sanjay Dutt, Abhishek Bachchan, Vidya Balan and Genelia Deshmukh.
- The Netflix debut broadens access for viewers who missed the theatrical run, offers families and non‑theatre audiences a chance to see the film, and may extend its commercial and cultural reach for Marathi cinema.
