Chhava release postponed

The news of the delay in Vicky Kaushal's upcoming film, Chhaava, further piqued the audience's interest. The entertainer's producers have officially confirmed the postponement of the film's theatrical release date from December 6, 2024, to February 14, 2025.

The makers made this decision knowing that the nation will celebrate Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti on February 19, 2025. Vicky plays the role of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, son of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and a Maratha ruler, in this film directed by Laxman Utekar and produced by Dinesh Vijan.

Rashmika Mandanna plays his wife, Maharani Yesubai Bhonsale, while Akshaye Khanna plays Aurangzeb. Not only that, but Santosh Juvekar, Pradeep Rawat, Divya Dutta, Neil Bhoopalam, and Ashutosh Rana will all be making significant appearances in the film.
