Vicky Kaushal and Rashmika Mandanna are all set to share screen space for the first time in period drama, Chhaava. The makers have been raising anticipation with striking promotional assets. And now, the excitement has skyrocketed even more as the makers have shared Rashmika’s look for the first time as Maharani Yesubai.

On January 21, the official Instagram page of Maddock Films shared a collaborative post with the rest of the team. The latest posters featured Rashmika Mandanna as Maharani Yesubai, wife of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, played by Vicky Kaushal.

The actress looks royal and vibrant, dressed in Maharashtrian Nauvari saree with heavy jewelry. Her traditional nose ring and red bindi make her look like a royal beauty queen. While Rashmika is standing in the forefront beaming a smile in the first poster, the second one showed the actress in a serious mood. The lavish sets in the background promise the film to be a worth-watch.
