Imagination Stories Branded as Real History

In the name of real history they just spread agenda of their own imagination .

Maybe 5% percent of truth. You can compare With history book and empirical evidence but this series is just opposite of all the facts.

Painful to watch

Two stars only for Kunal Kapoor because I respect him as an actor, otherwise everything about this show is cringey. Especially as a Hindu and a history buff, knowing what Babur and his progeny did to my ancestors and my heritage, seeing such monsters being glorified left me angry and disappointed. Don't recommend this show to anyone.

Far from reality

When you are using historical names try to be real. Mixing fiction with real names is really irritating to watch. Mughals were not Urdu speaking and from steppes while we have Babur with good height and Arab kinda looks, really funny. Apart from grand scale everything fails be it acting which is too loud, be it dialogues which are too filmy for mature viewers and distrubing background score. Don't waste your time.
