The show will also feature Naseeruddin Shah as Akbar. Produced by Contiloe Digital, the series is described as a revelatory tale about the inner workings and the succession drama played out in the hallowed chambers of the Mughal empire.
It dramatises the rise and fall of the generations that follow, showcasing the beauty and brutality of this great dynasty, their passion for arts, poetry, and architecture, but at the same time, their remarkably cold-blooded decisions with regard to their own family, in the quest for power, as per the official plotline.
The ensemble cast includes Aditi Rao Hydari as Anarkali, Aashim Gulati as Prince Salim, Taha Shah as Prince Murad, Shubham Kumar Mehra as Prince Daniyal, Sandhya Mridul as Queen Jodha Bai, Zareena Wahab as Queen Salima, Sauraseni Maitra as Mehr un Nisa and Rahul Bose as Mirza Hakim.
