The film has impressed not just audiences but also political leaders. Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis praised the film’s historical accuracy.
On February 19, he said, “I am happy that a very good movie has been made on his (Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj’s) life. I have yet to watch it, but I have heard from people that this film has been made without distorting history.”
There is growing demand to make the film tax-free. Addressing this, Fadnavis stated, “There has been a lot of demand from the people to make this film tax-free. I want to inform the people that we removed the entertainment tax in 2017 itself in Maharashtra. We will see what best we can do to promote this film and make it available for maximum people.”
