Two time Filmfare award winner Ashutosh Rana looks every bit fierce as he plays the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb and we all can’t wait to see what’s coming more.

Talking about it, he said, “He is one of the biggest figures of Indian history. If you talk about Mughal dynasty then in that period, there were only two figures who were really vital—one of them is Akbar because of his ideology and another one is Aurangzeb. People don’t remember rulers who ruled the country before and after them.”

The actor said he always wanted to be a part of a historical web series. “I feel your wish gets fulfilled but the universe tells you that you have to wait for it.”
