The making video of the highly anticipated film "Chhaava," based on the life of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, shows the extensive preparation and hard work that went into creating the historical epic. To portray the Maratha king and warrior, Kaushal gained 25 kilos, transforming his body to match the strength and physique of a historic figure.
The video, shared by Maddock Films on the YouTube, shows the efforts of the cast and crew in bringing the intense battle sequences to life. Actors, including Vicky Kaushal, are seen preparing for war scenes, where they spent several hours training in horseback riding, sword fighting, and rehearsing complex action sequences.
One of the key moments in the video shows Vicky Kaushal and the team preparing for the climax, which features Sambhaji Maharaj in captivity. The making video also provides a behind-the-scenes look at the royal coronation scene and the Burhanpur raid.
Vicky Kaushal revealed that each day began with 6 to 8 hours of training before the shooting started. The dedication of the entire team is evident in the video, demonstrating the lengths they went to ensure the authenticity of every action-packed moment.
"Chhaava" was released on February 14, 2025, and has already achieved great success, grossing over 120 crore rupees in its first four days.
