Sony TV is all set to launch a historical show on renowned ruler Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan and Anupamaa actor Viraj Kapoor will be seen playing a pivotal role in the project.
Sony Entertainment Television has a number of TV shows which will soon hit the television screens. Downtown Mirror Weekly has exclusively learned important updates about the channel’s upcoming historical drama titled Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan.
As per our highly placed sources, Anupamaa fame Viraj Kapoor will be seen playing an important role in the show. Viraj has been active in the industry for quite some time. He started off as a child artist and now the young actor is seen playing mature and important roles in various television shows.
Viraj has been a part of many popular dramas in the past which include shows like Bhootu, Tera Yaar Hoon Main, Dil Ki Suno, Ghulaam, Naadan Parindey and Lajvanti among others.
We at Downtown Mirror Weekly tried to get in touch with Viraj for the confirmation on this news piece, however, our attempts to do so went in vain.
Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan is produced by Contiloe Pictures and features acclaimed actors like Ronit Roy and Avinesh Rekhi. Avinesh will be seen taking up the project in an extremely powerful and negative character.
The promo of the show has already been telecast which features Ronit Roy playing the father of young Prithviraj Chauhan. As a doting father Someshwar (Ronit Roy) educates a young Prithviraj Chauhan about his duties towards his mother land.
The promo takes an emotional turn when the young Prithvi tells his father that he need not worry when his father will be there with him and at this juncture, Someshwar vanishes like a sand in thin air, depicting his departure from Prithviraj’s life quite early on.
Initially, Star Plus had earlier produced a show based on the same historical figure, titled ‘Dharti Ka Veer Putra Prithviraj Chauhan’. The show gave immense popularity to actor Rajat Tokas who played the titular role in the show.
