New Series Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan to Bring Alive a Glorious Chapter of Indian History

Mumbai : For years, the story of Prithviraj Chauhan has mostly been told through the lens of his legendary romance with Princess Sanyogita. But the upcoming series Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan is all set to change that narrative. This time, the focus will be on the valiant emperor whose courage, sharp intellect, and unmatched military strategies made history in the 12th century. The show will spotlight the crucial moment in Indian history when Prithviraj Chauhan waged a decisive battle against Muhammad Ghori.

Abhimanyu Singh, Founder and CEO of Contiloe Pictures, says,
“Until now, most people have seen or heard Prithviraj Chauhan’s story from the perspective of his love for Sanyogita. But our series aims to be different. It’s the story of a young boy who, at just 12 years old, became a king and took charge of his kingdom. At a time when the entire nation feared the ruthless invader Muhammad Ghori, Prithviraj Chauhan faced him without fear. The bravery and patriotism he showed at such a young age is truly commendable.”

The new show will unveil a lesser-known side of Prithviraj Chauhan’s life — his extraordinary military prowess, leadership qualities, and the complex political dynamics of the time.

While previous portrayals have often romanticized Prithviraj as a lover, this series will reveal his true identity as a fearless warrior and visionary ruler. It will also highlight the defining battles he fought against Muhammad Ghori. He will be depicted as the last great Hindu emperor of Delhi who bravely stood against foreign invaders.

With grand battle sequences, magnificent sets, powerful performances from seasoned actors, and deep historical research, Chakravarti Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan promises to immerse audiences in one of the most glorious eras of Indian history.

The series will premiere on June 4, airing every night at 7:30 PM on Sony Entertainment Television and SonyLIV.
