"Like it was it was very amazing. I felt like it was meant to happen because the way Laxman sir and I got in touch and everything. but I was very surprised and the second I heard the script, there were many instances in the film where I was like I was convinced." She continued.

"one scene kay baad I was like, okay fine, I'm doing the film, and then he says some other scene. And then I'm like, okay, now do I have to do the film. And then it just kept adding on and I think the first time in my life I was just like so I'm doing the film. Before even walking out of the office, I was just convinced and it's not even because of, the whole romantic bit of it or Yesubai screen space or whatever. I did it for Chhaava" Rashmika added

She went on to say, "I like to like play sequences in the chhaava of, choreography, the fireograph or whatever, how Laxman sir actually said it, to me, I fell in love with it.."

When Vicky was asked the same question, he mentioned, "Me and Laxman sir were shooting Zara Hatke Zara Bachhke. I think it was January 2021 or December 2021. USs waqt sir ne actually mujhe thoda sa dekha Chatrapati Maharaj ki Kahaniya sunna na shuru krdia tha without telling me what the plan is."

He further added, "Aur halaki main Maharashtra Board main padha hu, humare history books main mention tha, main finest details nhi jaanta tha, toh jab unhone mujhe btana shuru kiya toh I was very fascinated and then later he told me yeh agli picture hai aur tum mere Chhaava ho."
