UPCOMING film 'Chhava', starring Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandana as Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj and Maharani Yesubai, has landed in a controversy, with Shiv Sena minister Udaya Samant saying that they will not permit the release of the movie unless it is cleared by historical experts.

The film on Sambhaji, the son of Shivaji Maharaj, landed in the crosshairs of Maratha groups following the release of its trailer featuring a dance sequence that received backlash for its alleged inaccuracy. The trailer has a sequence in which Kaushal and Mandanna are seen dancing with the 'lezim', a traditional musical instrument associated with Maharashtra's cultural heritage.
