In an exclusive conversation with Drashti Dhami, Kunal Kapoor and Dino Morea, the trio sheds the light on their mega-budget, period series The Empire, which opened to good reviews today. The three actors take us through their trials and tribulations of shooting high-scale show amidst pandemic and their interpretation of historical characters. While Drashti opens up on her show being called as the Indian answer to world-acclaimed series Game of Thrones, Dino sheds light on his character bearing no resemblance to SLB and Ranveer Singh's Khilji. On a related note, Kunal reacts to the claims of whether Muslims and Mughals are shown in a restrictive, misinterpreted light and why The Empire is an ongoing story - a worthy step in orchestrating grand period dramas on OTT.
