Netflix began this 12 months with a bang when it got here to delivering long-form content. Be it Black Warrant, Dabba Cartel, or Khakee – The Bengal Chapter, it has ticked the boxes this 12 months for superlative content. Now, it brings one other web series – The Royals.
Directed by Priyanka Ghose and Nupur Asthana, the net series, stars Ishaan Khatter and Bhumi Pednekar, together with Sakshi Tanwar, Zeenat Aman, Nora Fatehi, Vihaan Samat, Kavya Trehan, Milind Soman aur Dino Morea.
The trailer of The Royals guarantees a royal rom-com and even the credit boards of the net series appears to be heavily inspired from a Disney rom-com (and even jogs my memory of Khoobsurat’s title design – that film with Sonam Kapoor and Fawad Khan). The two-minute 47-second trailer tries to elucidate the premise intimately!
This shahi romance has a raja played by Ishaan Khatter, royalty of Morpur. He meets his possible rani – Bhumi Pednekar, princess of her own world. Their worlds meet in a really business-y setup. There are some deals, some financial loopholed within the royalty and quite a bit is occurring which I clearly haven’t understood!
Amidst all this chaos, Ishaan and Bhumi are falling in love however the raja saab calls it situationship. There appears to be one other royalty Nora Fatehi who decodes all that is occurring in a single line – ‘Affairs ka future nahi hota, hamara hai!’
There’s a number of good-looking forged, and all of them are doing something amidst this chaotic love story! My biggest grievance is just not showing Zeenat Aman. I mean, come on, I could have watched this trailer 30 times if she had been there for 3 seconds also! But only a glimpse is filling me with doubts that she may not be an integral a part of the net series as well! And I’m already doubtful and sulking at this thought. Hopefully, I’m just overthinking!
All in all, this trailer has not impressed me much because my pea-size brain couldn’t determine what is occurring on this Raja Rani ki kahani surrrounded by so many good looking folks that I’m distracted to the core!
The Royals is arriving on Netflix on May 9. Take a look at the trailer of the net series here.
