After a blockbuster theatrical run, Vicky Kaushal’s ‘Chhaava’, directed by Laxman Utekar, is now set to stream on Netflix from April 11.
Produced by Dinesh Vijan for Maddock Films, the film, which released on February 14 and is set to touch the Rs. 600 crore benchmark by this weekend, brings to life the extraordinary, inspiring story of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, one of India’s greatest warriors, played by Vicky, an IANS report from Mumbai stated yesterday.
Vicky said, “Playing Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj was an honour beyond words and one of the most fulfilling experiences of my career. His courage, resilience, and legacy are something that should reach every corner of the world.
“With Netflix, we’re ensuring that his story not only penetrates deeper in India but also gets the global platform it deserves.”
It also stars Akshaye Khanna, Rashmika Mandanna, Ashutosh Rana, Divya Dutta, Vineet Kumar Singh, Neil Bhoopalam, and Diana Penty. The soundtrack is by the legendary A. R. Rahman, and lyrics are penned by Irshad Kamil.
“‘Chhaava’ has been a labour of love and an emotional journey for all of us,” says producer Dinesh Vijan, “At Maddock Films, we’re passionate about telling stories that matter—stories that leave a mark. ‘Chhaava’ is not just a tale of courage; it’s a celebration of legacy, resilience, and sacrifice.”
