Ronit Bose Roy on Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan: It is a powerful reminder that age is just a number especially when your hearts are filled with love and pride for your country
For years, the story of Prithviraj Chauhan has mostly been told through the lens of his iconic romance with Princess Sanyogita. But the upcoming series Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan aims to rewrite that perspective, focusing instead on the king's unmatched courage, sharp military strategy, and his legendary battle against Muhammad Ghori in the 12th century.
The new series aims to dive deep into Prithviraj's military exploits, his leadership, and the political turmoil of the time culminating in the pivotal battles against Ghori. While past portrayals have romanticized the king's life, this one is determined to offer a more complete picture of the ruler who once stood as the last major king who ruled Delhi.
Adding depth to the saga is Ronit Bose Roy, portraying King Someshwar, Prithviraj's father.
His powerful performance brings emotional weight to the story of a young boy destined to become a legendary ruler.
Talking about the show Ronit Bose Roy says, 'The clash of these two titans – Prithviraj Chauhan and Muhammad Ghori is something that history will ever. Especially the valour, courage and bravery that Prithviraj Chauhan portrayed through this battlefield. It was a clash of blood for the motherland with a defence like no other.

'Sitaare Zameen Par' makers shares his opinion on marching of tech in cinema
Director R.S. Prasanna, who is awaiting the release of his upcoming film 'Sitaare Zameen Par', feels that human beings will soon catch up with the technological changes in filmmaking. The filmmaker spoke with IANS in the run-up to the release of his film, which features Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh. He recollected how he saw Indian cinema legend Kamal Haasan experimenting with a digital camera, Red Dragon. Speaking with IANS, Prasanna said, "I think the industry is pretty fast in adapting, like I remember when 35mm film was there and I was in film school and Kamal Haasan sir was testing the Red camera in our L.V. Prasad Film Institute, Chennai where I studied. He was doing a test shoot. I remember all the people around saying, 'it's just a fad and it'll not happen, it's not gonna happen', and it did". Aamir Khan's altered AI video hits cyberspace; 'Mr Perfectionist' issues clarification on 'endorsing' a particular political party The director said that one cannot stop the march of technology and one has to adapt. The audience will demand a change, the filmmakers will rise, the technological change will happen as it should, and experiments will keep happening, some will click, some will not. He further mentioned, "But I think one thing which will never change is the way our hearts beat, so as long as the heart is there in everything, the visual is only pixels, the sound is only decibels, but that feeling, that soul, that is, as long as we have a heart, stories told by humans will always be relevant". He then cited the example of romance as to how the shape or form of romance in cinematic storytelling has changed but the soul is the same. He shared, "If you see around yourself, romance has been there from early manage, they may say romance has changed, no romance has not changed, the medium has changed, today you call it situationship or anything else but, still the heart pains if you don't get to be with the person of your choice". "I feel unless genetically our heart changes or our mind changes, I think storytelling and emotions will be the same, the form will keep changing and we have to be on the awareness of that as a director, but I think for me as a filmmaker, I'm only looking for the soul, which I think soul is very old, so it won't change that fast", he added. Produced by Aamir Khan under his banner, Aamir Khan Productions, 'Sitaare Zameen Par' is set to release in cinemas on June 20, 2025.
