Synopsis

The story is set against the backdrop of 18th century Bengal when Nabab Siraj ud-Daulah, the last independent ruler of the kingdom of Bengal, sat on the throne succeeding his maternal grandfather Nawab Alivardi Khan. As a ruler he faced political tension, aggression from the English, betrayal of close relatives (like his elder maternal aunt Ghaseti Begum) and his chief military advisor Mir Jafar, and various other struggles. The show is a fictionalised account of how Siraj ud-Daulah falls in love with the maid Lutfa who became his wife, Begum Lutfunnisa, and how she stands by the Nabab as his main support.[2]
