After a year shaped by controversy, resistance, and relentless determination, the film has officially premiered on OTT and has already begun generating strong conversations across audiences and industry circles.
More than just a digital release, Miss Burkha represents the powerful beginning of a long-term storytelling vision conceptualized and led by writer director Parag Chaudhari. The film is positioned as the foundation of the Shiv Chhatrapati Cinematic Universe, a narrative world inspired by the enduring leadership philosophy and values associated with Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Parag ensured that the ideological and historical elements woven into the script were rooted in credible research, giving the story intellectual depth along with cinematic intensity.
What makes Miss Burkha stand out further is that Parag Chaudhari does not remain behind the camera alone. He steps into the narrative as Swaraj, an ideologically driven and powerful character who shapes the emotional battlefield of the film. His presence adds dramatic weight and psychological tension, creating a gripping dynamic that defines the tone of the story.
Opposite him, Vinisha Kulkarni portrays Muskan with striking conviction and layered emotion. After weeks of workshops and preparation, she delivers a performance that feels both controlled and fiercely expressive. The Swaraj and Muskan dynamic forms the backbone of the film’s impact, and the makers have confirmed that Muskan will continue as a central face in upcoming chapters of the Shiv Chhatrapati Cinematic Universe.
The project received unwavering support from producers Amol Redij, Jaya Nair, and Ashutosh Yawale along with co producer Padmapriya Ravishankar. Their commitment during the film’s most challenging phases helped transform obstacles into momentum. Even before its OTT debut on Pocket Films, Miss Burkha secured multiple awards at film festivals, strengthening its credibility and anticipation.
Released strategically on Shiv Jayanti, the film positions itself as more than entertainment. It is a bold and thought provoking narrative that invites dialogue and challenges perspectives. With its digital arrival now official, Miss Burkha has not entered quietly. It has announced the Shiv Chhatrapati Cinematic Universe with confidence, clarity, and authority.
