The serial on the life and times of Sikh king Maharaja Ranjit Singh will remind people about the significance of history and make them aware about the unsung heroes of our country, Prasar Bharati CEO B S Lalli said.
"As people tend to forget history, this serial will remind them about the significance, role and sacrifices of those unsung heroes of our country," Lalli told reporters yesterday, while announcing the launch of the serial.
I am sure the serial will be loved by all as it is about Indian history, he said.
Made by actor and MP Raj Babbar, the new show will be telecast on Doordarshan from April 13, every Tuesday at 10 pm.
DD has commissioned the serial and acquired all rights to telecast it, Lalli said, adding, "The serial is based on the life and times of Sikh king Maharaja Ranjit Singh who united Punjab and established a Khalsa Raj. Ranjt Singh had become a legend in his own lifetime and this needs to be shown to the people of today."
Maharaja Ranjit Singh is directed by Chitraath Singh and Sikander Bharti and produced by Nadira and Kuku Babbar. Jagjit Singh has composed the music.
