Chhava's initial release date was December 6, 2024, which was one day after Pushpa 2's national premiere. It was expected that Vicky Kaushal starrer's box office success would be greatly impacted by the Telugu actioner's enormous buzz. The producers most likely decided to change the release date as a result of this clash.

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the new release on his official X handle and the caption read, "VICKY KAUSHAL - RASHMIKA - AKSHAYE KHANNA: 'CHHAAVA' NEW RELEASE DATE ANNOUNCEMENT... #Chhaava is now set for a theatrical release on 14 Feb 2025... The release date holds special significance since it coincides with Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti on 19 Feb 2025."

Chhava New Release Date:

Given the film's significance to the legendary person, it has been reported that another reason for the delay would be to release Chhava on the occasion of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti. The film centres on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's son, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, which adds to the significance of the release date.
