PM Modi to attend special screening of Chhaava in Parliament
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend a special screening of the Hindi film Chhaava on Wednesday at the Balayogi Auditorium in Parliament, alongside Cabinet ministers and Members of Parliament.
The film, which narrates the life of Maratha ruler Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, has received widespread appreciation as well as criticism. The screening will be attended by the film’s cast and crew, including actor Vicky Kaushal, who plays the titular role.
Last month, PM Modi had acknowledged the film's impact during his address at the Akhil Bharatiya Marathi Sahitya Sammelan in New Delhi. He highlighted its significance in portraying Sambhaji Maharaj’s resistance against Mughal emperor Aurangzeb and credited Marathi literature for inspiring the film. “It is Maharashtra and Mumbai that have elevated both Marathi and Hindi cinema. These days, Chhaava is creating a buzz across the country. The portrayal of Sambhaji Maharaj’s courage in this way has been inspired by Shivaji Sawant’s Marathi novel,” he remarked on February 21.
