Nuclear fusion, which is the mechanism by which stars operate, will cause lighter nuclei to "combine" (fuse) to create heavier ones. It will also cause a lot of energy to appear. This is because the fusion reactions are exothermic (at least through fusion that creates elements up through iron).

Is nuclear chain reaction is called fusion?

No, a nuclear chain reaction refers to a self-sustaining series of nuclear fissions where the neutrons released in one reaction cause further fissions. Fusion, on the other hand, is the process of combining two light atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, releasing large amounts of energy in the process.
