Inspired by the novel of the same name, ‘Chhaava’ showcases the life of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, the son of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Chaava was the second ruler of the Maratha Empire, who continued the legacy of Swaraj established by his father. Although he was ultimately captured by Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, the relentless torture he endured could not undermine the spirit of the Maratha warrior. ETimes review for the movie reads, "Chhaava’s redeeming factor is its terrific climax. Vicky Kaushal is breathtaking as he exudes Sambhaji Maharaj’s valour and passion for swarajya (self-rule) like it were his second skin. You just wish the film relied and trusted its story more than Rahman's music, which largely feels out of place."
