Mumbai, March 13 (Ians) Known for her roles in ‘Saathiya’ and ‘Page 3’, actress Sandhya Mridul is playing the role of Jodha Bai in the show ‘Taj-Divided by Blood’. She spoke about how her portrayal of this historical character is going to be different and the role Ott plays in giving actors a chance to reinvent themselves.

I am hoping that I brought something that only I can bring to the character. I am hoping that uptil now, I have resonated with people and I have tried to bring things authentically and I hope that I still resonate somewhere and they remember me as Jodha too.”
“To add to it, every person is unique. I am a different person from other people who have played Jodha.

Mumbai, Feb 22 (Ians) Actor, writer and director Rahul Bose, who will be seen in the upcoming web series ‘Taj – Divided by Blood’, has shared what prompted him to take up the project and also briefed about his role in the series.

“I had a very fruitful conversation with Ron Scalpello (director) in terms of his conceptualisation of the character and the way it was written.”
He also talked about his interest in Mughal history, saying: “I am well-versed as anybody else who read history in school, may be a little bit more than that.
