About Chhaava

The period drama stars Vicky Kaushal in the lead role. Chhaava is all set to hit the theatres on February 14 this year. In the film, Vicky will be playing the role of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj. Maharani Yesubai was the wife of the Maratha ruler, and was referred to as Chatrapati Maharani of the Maratha Kingdom.

Produced by Maddock Films and directed by Laxman Utekar, the film also stars Akshaye Khanna. 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.” The trailer will be released on Wednesday.

Recently, Vicky attended CNN-News18’s Indian Of The Year Awards, where he was felicitated with the Youth Icon Of 2024 honour. During his speech, the actor said when the director first discussed the project with him, the first thought on his mind was if he would be able to do justice to the legacy of the historical figure.

“The first feeling is just, ‘Will I be able to do justice to such an incredible legacy?’ But that’s what excites me the most as well. Also, every opportunity like this, when you get a great man like Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, it is also a beautiful opportunity to understand their culture, their history, their values, their beliefs, and their love for the country,” the actor said.
