Set in the fading kingdom of Morpur, the upcoming Netflix series blends royal charm, corporate ambition, and unexpected romance in a modern-day twist on love and legacy
Mumbai, April 22:
The trailer of The Royals, Netflix’s new star-studded romantic drama series, is finally out—offering a vibrant peek into the opulent yet crumbling kingdom of Morpur, where royalty meets boardroom ambition in a rollercoaster of love, legacy, and laughter.
Created by Priyanka Ghose and Nupur Asthana, and penned by Neha Veena Sharma, the series features an ensemble cast led by screen legend Zeenat Aman, alongside Bhumi Pednekar, Ishaan Khatter, Sakshi Tanwar, Nora Fatehi, Dino Morea, Milind Soman, Chunky Panday, and more.
💫 A Modern Love Story with a Royal Backdrop
The trailer sets the tone for an unconventional rom-com, where a spirited prince (Ishaan Khatter) and a tough-as-nails CEO (Bhumi Pednekar) must join forces—and perhaps fall in love—as they attempt to save their legacy from fading into history. Between boardroom battles and palace politics, The Royals promises an irresistible blend of humour, heart, and heritage.
🎤 Stars Reflect on the Journey
Zeenat Aman, making a grand return to screen, shared her excitement:
“The Royals has been refreshing and creatively fulfilling. Working with young talents full of energy made the experience lively and engaging. I’m grateful to Netflix and Pritish Nandy Communications for this extraordinary tale.”
Bhumi Pednekar, who plays the ambitious Sophia, said:
“Sophia is fierce, emotionally honest, and deeply relatable. It’s been a joy bringing her to life in such a richly layered world.”
Ishaan Khatter added:
“This show is zany, unpredictable, and full of surprises. Playing Maharaja Aviraaj was pure fun—he’s frustratingly charming and wonderfully flawed.”
📺 Release Date & Platform
The Royals will premiere May 9 on Netflix, offering binge-worthy drama, dazzling visuals, and a fresh take on modern love wrapped in royal trappings.
Prepare to be swept away into the quirky, chaotic, and utterly charming world of Morpur!
