Chhaava LEAKED Online: In a shocking turn of events, the highly anticipated historical drama Chhaava, which had just been released in theaters on February 14, 2025, has reportedly been leaked online. This act of piracy has made the entire film, directed by Laxman Utekar and produced by Dinesh Vijan under the esteemed banner of Maddock Films, available for illegal viewing on various piracy websites and search engines. Chhaava, which boasts an impressive cast, including Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandanna, tells the captivating story of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, the second ruler of the Maratha Confederacy. The film also features the talented Akshaye Khanna as Aurangzeb, with the legendary A. R. Rahman composed the music. With a runtime of two hours and thirty-five minutes, the full film is now accessible on several illicit platforms, much to the dismay of the filmmakers and fans alike.

Chaava has fallen prey to rampant piracy, with unauthorised uploads flooding several illicit websites. Furthermore, keywords such as "Chhaava Movie Download" and "Chhaava Free HD" have been trending, starkly indicating a significant surge in illegal downloads, which is likely to cause substantial losses for the filmmakers.

Jagran English does not promote piracy. According to the 1957 Copyright Act, piracy is illegal. We ask that readers abstain from engaging in piracy.

Chhaava made tax free in MP and Goa

Just days after its release, Chhaava has been declared tax free in Madhya Pradesh and Goa.
