Disney+ Hotstar has unveiled the trailer of its upcoming original series ‘Secrets Of The Shiledars’ and this one blends in history with a mysterious treasure hunt. Helmed by ‘Munjya’ fame Aditya Sarpotdar, ‘Secrets Of The Shiledars’ will premiere only on Disney+ Hotstar on 31st January, 2025.
The trailer shows an elderly man, from a secret society, handing over the responsibility of protecting the treasure of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj to the rightful heirs of the Shiledars.
Unaware of the task he is bestowed with Dr. Ravi (Rajeev Khandelwal) along with his colleagues Aditya (Gaurav Amlani) and Priya (Sai Tamhankar) takes upon an adventurous and risky quest to protect the treasure from falling into wrong hands.
Based on the book ‘Pratipashchandra’, ‘Secrets Of The Shiledars’ might feel similar in theme to the popular ’Indiana Jones’ films and even the makers don’t shy away from accepting it as seen in the trailer. What’s different here is the involvement of Indian history and culture into what looks like a mysterious and mythical treasure hunt.
The world buildup looks good and so is the intensity and performances from the lead cast. Rajeev Khandelwal as the leading man seems to be a great casting choice. Also, attention to details is a notable factor of the show which is conspicuous in the ancient relics shown in it.
If done right, ‘Secrets Of The Shiledars’ has the potential to turn into a good series with something unique to offer to the audience. The fact that it incorporates the Indian side into the story can be another potential pulling factor. It will be interesting to see how this one turns out.
Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, ‘The Secrets Of The Shiledas’ stars Rajeev Khandelwal, Sai Tamahankar, Ashish Vidyarthi and Gaurav Amlani in pivotal roles. Produced by Dashami Studios, ‘The Scerers Of The Shiledars’ will premiere only in Disney+ Hotstar on 31st January, 2025.
