Popular actor Ronit Roy, who will be seen as King Someshwar, shared that he worked hard for four months to get fit for the role. “Losing weight is part of life, but being fit was essential for this character,” he said.

Addressing the recent industry debate involving Deepika Padukone and Sandeep Reddy Vanga on working hours and remuneration, Ronit stated, “Money is important, but what matters more is what I’m doing. Every artist has their own priorities. For me, it’s about the project, the people involved, and where it will be released.”

On working with a veteran like Padmini Kolhapure, he added, “Padmini ji is incredibly talented, and it’s always a pleasure talking to her on set.”

Child actor Urva Savaliya, who plays Prithviraj Chauhan, excitedly said, “I feel like an emperor when I’m in costume.” About the atmosphere on set, he added innocently, “No one scolds me — they teach me with love.”

Avinesh Rekhi Speaks

Avinesh Rekhi, who plays the role of Muhammad Ghori, described it as a challenging yet exciting role. “I’ve worked in historical shows before, and this one is an honor for me,” he shared. He mentioned that initially, the dialogues included many Urdu words, but they were later simplified into Hindi for easier understanding. On makeup, he revealed that it used to take two hours but now takes around 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Kantile Pictures Founder & CEO Speaks

Speaking about the production, Kantile Pictures’ founder and CEO Abhimanyu Singh stated that while VFX is used today, it's crucial to retain real locations that offer 360-degree views and expansive corridors to recreate an authentic royal palace setting.

He shared that the set was crafted with fine attention to detail, using real Rajasthani stone and hand-made moldings by artisans. This intensive process took nearly 10 months of hard work from the team to recreate 1200-year-old India — especially the culture and history of Ajmer.
