‘Ashoka Samrat’ gets ‘Game of Thrones’ touch in story

While American fantasy show “Game of Thrones” is known for various illegitimate affairs and deaths in its day-to-day episodes, popular Indian historical drama show “Chakravartin Ashoka Samrat” (role of Ashoka is played by Siddharth Nigam) will next witness a similar kind twist in its storyline!

Noor’s (Ankita Sharma) illegal affair with Justin (Sumit Kaul) will be revealed.

In the forthcoming episode, Siamak (M.D. Faizan), who was believed by everyone to be Emperor Bindusara’s (Sameer Dharmadhikari) son, will be declared as the illegitimate child of Noor (one of Emperor Bindusara’s wives) and Justin (Bindusara’s half brother).

Talking about the sequence, Sumit said in a statement: “As an actor, I enjoyed performing the scene thoroughly as there was so much drama and emotion in it. The timing of revelation is at a time when he is ready to put everything at jeopardy in order to save the love of his life, Noor.”

“As a character, I feel it is a high point for Justin and his relationship with Noor. He is in the relationship…because he truly loves Noor. To know that he is the father of Noor’s child makes him realise that he matters most to Noor. It gives their love story a higher meaning.”
