New Delhi: The much-anticipated Box Office clash between Chhaava and Pushpa 2: The Rule has been averted! Initially scheduled for release on December 6, the film has now been postponed to February 14, 2025. This strategic move not only avoids competition with Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2 but also aligns with a meaningful date-Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti, celebrated on February 19.
Directed by Laxman Utekar and produced by Dinesh Vijan under Maddock Films, Chhaava stars Vicky Kaushal as the fearless Maratha warrior Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj. Rashmika Mandanna portrays his love interest Yesubai Bhonsale, while Akshaye Khanna takes on the role of the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb. The cast of Chhaava also includes Ashutosh Rana as Sarsenapati Hambirao Mohite and Divya Dutta as Soyarabai.
