'Chhaava' is a period drama that portrays the legendary story of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj.
Vicky Kaushal impresses audiences with his role as the Maratha ruler. In a recent interview with ANI, Vicky admitted that playing Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj was his "toughest role" yet. "Playing such a historical figure requires a lot of discipline, and discipline is tough. If you are not used to discipline, where I was, it becomes very challenging because it's not just a one-month commitment; it's a commitment for one-and-a-half to two years," Vicky said. The film, directed by Laxman Utekar, also stars Akshaye Khanna and Rashmika Mandanna.
