Following its successful box office run, Vicky Kaushal's period drama centred on Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj is set to premiere on Netflix. The streaming giant announced the news on Thursday. Directed by Laxman Utekar and produced by Dinesh Vijan under Maddock Films, the movie was initially released in theatres on February 14. It also features Rashmika Mandanna, Akshay Khanna, Vineet Kumar Singh, and Ashutosh Rana. The platform shared the film's poster on Instagram, inviting viewers to experience "a tale of courage and glory etched in time," accompanied by a crown, fire, and sword emoji.
Netflix confirmed that “Chhaava” will be available to watch starting April 11. After a strong performance over the past seven weeks, the film experienced a significant drop in earnings this week, falling below the Rs 1 crore mark for the first time. After reaching Rs 590 crore by the end of its seventh weekend, the film's earnings plummeted to approximately Rs 52 lakh on its 48th day in theatres, bringing its total domestic net collection to around Rs 594.88 crore, as reported by sacnilk.com.
Meanwhile, boxofficeindia reports indicate that the film's gross collection has exceeded Rs 700 crore, with its worldwide total nearing Rs 800 crore. Despite the gradual decline in daily revenue, Chhaava has established itself as one of the highest-grossing Indian films of 2025 and has become Vicky Kaushal's most successful film to date, surpassing the earnings of Uri: The Surgical Strike.
Chhaava is a historical action film inspired by the life of Sambhaji Maharaj, the Maratha Empire's second ruler, portrayed by Kaushal. It is adapted from the Marathi novel Chhava by Shivaji Sawant, and is directed by Laxman Utekar, produced by Dinesh Vijan of Maddock Films. The cast also features Rashmika Mandanna and Akshaye Khanna, with the film's score and soundtrack composed by A. R. Rahman, with lyrics penned by Irshad Kamil and Kshitij Patwardhan.
