The announcement introduces the anthem as a grand tribute, with music composed by the celebrated duo Ajay Atul and choreography by Remo D'Souza. The makers describe it as a “King Shivaji Anthem,” designed to capture the spirit of valor, pride, and leadership associated with the Maratha ruler. The tagline “Our King, Our Pride” further reinforces the film’s emotional and patriotic core.
The film boasts a massive ensemble cast featuring Riteish Deshmukh in the titular role, along with Sanjay Dutt, Abhishek Bachchan, Vidya Balan, Mahesh Manjrekar, Sachin Khedekar, Boman Irani, Bhagyashree, Fardeen Khan, Jitendra Joshi, Amole Gupte, and Genelia Deshmukh. The scale of the casting reflects the film’s ambition to deliver a large-scale historical spectacle.
Directed by Riteish Deshmukh, the project is being produced by Genelia Deshmukh and Jyoti Deshpande. The film has been shot across various locations including Mumbai, Satara, Wai, and the Western Ghats, aiming to authentically recreate the era of the Maratha empire. Since its announcement in 2024, the project has been positioned as one of the most ambitious historical dramas in Indian cinema.
The poster imagery reflects the grandeur of the narrative, showcasing a royal figure standing before massive crowds, flags, and traditional drums, symbolizing resistance and pride. As anticipation builds for the release of the Chhatrapati anthem on April 15, 2026, expectations around Raja Shivaji continue to rise, with fans eager to witness its blend of music, history, and cinematic scale.
