Bollywood actor Vicky Kaushal is gearing up for his next big role in the historical period drama ‘Chhaava’, where he will portray the legendary Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj. According to recent reports, ‘Chhaava’ could hit theatres in mid-February 2025, perfectly timed to align with Shivaji Jayanti, on February 19.

Based on Shivaji Sawant’s novel ‘Chhaava’, the historical epic explores Sambhaji Maharaj’s legacy as a Maratha warrior. Initially ‘Chhaava’ was scheduled for a December 2024 release. However, the film’s release date was moved to avoid a clash with the highly anticipated ‘Pushpa 2’, starring Allu Arjun, which is set to release on December 5.

With that clash averted, the makers of ‘Chhaava’ are aiming for a release date between February 14 and 21 in 2025, which would coincide with Shivaji Jayanti. It seems like the perfect opportunity to celebrate the heroism of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj with a fitting release.

In a conversation with Pinkvilla last year, Vicky Kaushal had said, “It’s the first time for me. It’s a period drama but we are making it very seriously and there is a lot of action in it; Lot of drama in it; Very high on emotions and it really is a spectacular story.”

Apart from Vicky Kaushal, Rashmika Mandanna will be essaying the role of Yesubai Bhonsale, wife of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj. Additionally, Akshaye Khanna, Ashutosh Rana, and Divya Dutta will also be playing important roles. Directed by Laxman Utekar, ‘Chhaava’ will feature music composed by the legendary AR Rahman. Backed by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock films, this period drama marks the first-ever collaboration between Vicky and Rashmika, adding to the film’s anticipation.
