This film marks Shahane’s first portrayal of a historical character in her thirty-seven-year career.
On 14 May 2024, the birth anniversary of Sambhaji Maharaj, the first-look poster featuring Singh was unveiled at a grand event in Pune, organized by Suryoday Pratishthan under Navnath Pathare Patil, with thousands of devotees in attendance.
