Chhava has gained international recognition for its compelling storytelling and historical accuracy, illuminating the often-overlooked yet crucial elements of Maratha history.

The film has been praised not only for its historical relevance but also for its captivating storyline and performances, particularly Kaushal’s interpretation of the Maratha hero.

Released on February 14, 2025, Chhava has been commended for its historical fidelity and emotional narrative. The film continues to perform robustly at the box office in its sixth week.
