Check out the tweets:
Talking about the trailer, Kunal had earlier said, “We have heard many stories about Babur and the Mughals, but very little about who they were, where they came from and how they came into India. In this fictional take, this is a character with a lot of complexities, and that is what intrigued me as an actor. The trailer is just a small glimpse into the world of The Empire”.
On the other hand, Shabana, who also plays an integral part in the series, is also hopeful for the success of the series, “For many years I have been fascinated by the imperial lives from the pages of history. We have seen and read many stories but the ones that I love the most are where women play strategic roles; much like my character in The Empire - she is fierce, confident and knows what she wants. I hope the audience enjoys watching her as much as I enjoyed playing her,” she added.
To note, the series is based on Alex Rutherfords’ Empire of the Moghul Raider From the North and will be releasing on August 27 this year.
