Chhaava is touted as a “stirring tale of the courageous warrior whose coronation on this day in 1681 marked the beginning of a legendary reign.” It is based on the courageous tale of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, Shivaji’s eldest son.

Chhaava release date:
Chhaava, directed by Laxman Utekar and produced by Maddock Films, will be released in theatres on 14 February 2025.
The makers of the film announced the release date on Instagram: “On 16th January 1681, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj’s Rajyabhishek ceremony marked the beginning of a legendary legacy! 344 years later, we bring his story of unshaken courage and glory to life”
“Releasing in cinemas on 14th February 2025. #Chhaava #ChhaavaOnFeb14.”
Chhaava was originally scheduled for release on 6 December 2024, just one day after the nationwide debut of Pushpa 2. Given the immense hype surrounding the Telugu action film, it was anticipated that it would significantly impact Chhava’s box office performance. This likely led the makers to opt for a new release date.
Other than Vicky Kaushal And Rashmika Mandanna, Chhaava Stars Akshaye Khanna, Ashutosh Rana, and Divya Dutta in Key Roles.

Chhaava trailer receives mixed reviews
Most X users dismissed the Chhaava trailer, stating that it was repetitive and lacked the depth that other period drama movies such as ‘Tanhaji’ or ‘Padmavaat’ had.
Several other users, however, have been going gaga over Vicky Kaushal’s performance, adding that it was his performance that stole the spotlight, even though the VFX was not up to the mark.
