Tejasswi Prakash's 'Pehredaar Piya Ki' creates 'HISTORY'

Television shows or cinema is not about simply developing a concept and getting things done. Apart from locking the cast, every minute detail is to be taken into consideration starting from sets, venue, costumes to even the props that are to be used. And, Sony Entertainment Television's upcoming unusual love story Pehredaar Piya Ki, has done just that, in an impressive manner.

 

The character of Ratan Harshvardhan Singh (played by child actor Afaan Khan), is someone who is a child but royal in his lifestyle and appearance. To complete the look and bring out the character, the production team did an in depth research on shields and swords for the show, to give that grandeur look and feel to the viewers.

 

A source from the production reveals, "Jaipur, Udaipur, and Sirohi are the main centers for making swords and shields and these weapons are something that every royal family possesses. During the shoot, about 250 swords were scrutinized before zeroing in on one. The creative team finally shortlisted the historic Indian Mughal silver work sword with Damascus blade with semi-precious stone, created and designed by expert craftsmen, which will be seen throughout the show."

 

Pehredaar Piya Ki, is the story of an unusual marriage between a 9 year old boy, Ratan Harshvardhan Singh and an 18 year old girl, Diya (played by Tejasswi Prakash Wayangankar). Diya sacrifices her own dreams and gets married to Ratan to be his protector.

 

The cast is currently shooting in that part of Mandawa which is a part of the Shekhawati region.
