The action-packed teaser of Chatrapathi introduces audiences to the key character essayed by Bellamkonda. He is seen donning an intense avatar and performing some high-octane action and jaw-dropping stunts.

It also stars Nusshratt Bharuccha, Bhagyashree, Sharad Kelkar, Sahil Vaid, Amit Nair, Rajendra Gupta, and Shivam Patil, among others.
On his experience working in the film, Sreenivas Bellamkonda said, “I’m happy to make my Bollywood debut with a special film like ‘Chatrapathi’ which is a highly thrilling and engaging mass action entertainer. Every moment working on this film was as exciting as it was challenging and we are happy to finally present it to audiences across India.”
Producer Dr Jayantilal Gada added, “SS Rajamouli’s Chatrapathi was an ideal project to reimagine for a Pan-India audience. Apart from introducing the extremely talented Sreenivas Bellamkonda to an entirely new market, the film also has all the essential components of a mainstream entertainer. We at Pen Studios are overjoyed to bring “Chatrapathi” to cinema enthusiasts all around the nation.”
The film is an official Hindi remake of a Telugu film with the same title which was helmed by the RRR director SS Rajamouli and starred Prabhas and Shriya Saran in lead roles.
