Chhaava, produced by Dinesh Vijan's Maddock films, also shared a clip of Modi's speech on their official Instagram handle. "A historic honor! It is a great moment of pride as Honorable Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji applauds 'Chhaava' and honors Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj's sacrifice and legacy. This moment fills us with immense gratitude," the studio wrote. They also expressed their gratitude towards the entire team of the film for this special mention.
The film has been declared tax-free in Goa and Madhya Pradesh and has received widespread critical acclaim. Along with Kaushal and Mandanna, it also stars Akshaye Khanna, Diana Penty, Vineet Kumar Singh, and Ashutosh Rana.
