Sher Shivraj is filmmaker Digpal Lanjekar's fourth Marathi film after Farzand, Fatteshikast and Pawankhind. These movies are a part of Digpal’s 8-part movie series on the life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Sher Shivraj describes the war of Pratapgad as Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's victory, not over just Afzal Khan, but over the Adil Shahi dynasty. The film will showcase how Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj used brilliant strategies to defeat his opponent Afzal Khan despite limited army and ammunition.

Talking about the storyline, Afzal Khan was the only one to take up the mission of seizing the Maratha king in Bijapur's court of Adil Shahi. Afzal Khan marched toward Pratapgarh with a mighty army of soldiers, horses and elephants and showcased his power while looting and destroying all the cities & sacred temples on the way, to irk Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. The movie aptly accounts the battle tactics and strategic thinking of the Maratha Emperor. An inspiring movie with leadership lessons and touching story of the Maratha empire makes it a must watch for audiences and fans.

Digpal Lanjekar has also penned the screenplay for the film. Devdutta Manisha Baji composed the music, and Reshmi Sarkar is the cinematographer.
