When Shivaji and his family and the entire community of his village are one day forced to leave Pakistan, he is separated from his beloved mother, who once adopted him, while fleeing to India. Having grown into a respectable and feared man a few years later, Shivaji now sets out in search of his next of kin. But he also stands up for the rights of his people who are forced into forced labor by an exploiter and devotes his whole life to this task, which is why he is henceforth referred to as 'Chatrapathi'.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
A Hindi remake of S.S. Rajamouli's 2005 Telugu blockbuster, carrying the original's mass-hero DNA into Bollywood's current action revival.
The 'Chatrapathi' title deliberately evokes Shivaji Maharaj, framing the protagonist as a modern Maratha warrior defending displaced subjects — the film's politics are as loud as its background score.
