The source further added, “Meanwhile, Rohit Saraf will be seen as Sachindra Nath Sanyal, a close associate of Bose. Interestingly, he has grown a moustache for the role. Pratibha Ranta plays Sanyal’s wife, whom he married as a child.”

The team is currently shooting in Madh Island, Mumbai, on a specially designed set that replicates Bengal in the early 1900s. While the streaming platform has yet to be confirmed, sources indicate that the show might premiere on SonyLIV. Advani has previously delivered successful projects for the platform, including Freedom at Midnight and Rocket Boys.
