The musical masterpiece by Feroz Abbas Khan makes its much-anticipated return to The Grand Theatre, breathing new life into the iconic love story that defied an empire.

The multi-award-winning stage phenomenon, ‘Mughal-E-Azam’, based on K. Asif’s 1960 film of the same name, narrates the timeless tale of Salim and Anarkali, the famous star-crossed lovers of the Mughal era. Having mesmerised audiences across India and abroad with multiple sold-out performances, the production now embarks on its third glorious run by popular demand.

Featuring a cast and crew of 150, the breathtaking show brings together some of the finest Indian and international theatrical talents, including Mayuri Upadhya (Choreography), Manish Malhotra (Costume Design), Neil Patel (Scenic Design), David Lander (Lighting Design), John Narun (Projection Design), Richard Nowell (Sound Design), Mukesh Chhabra CSA (Casting), and Deepesh Salgia (Producer).

Unfolding in the expansive embrace of the 2000-seater Grand Theatre, the story is as epic as the backdrop it inhabits, where emperor Akbar’s son Salim comes home victorious from the battlefield after fourteen years to fall in love with the beautiful courtesan, Anarkali. The emperor, disapproving of the relationship, imprisons Anarkali, leading Salim to declare war against his father. This tussle of love and rebellion threatens the future of the Mughal empire, creating the heart of a grand conflict.

The larger-than-life extravaganza features original songs from the movie, sung live, along with 550 exquisite costumes. Having won hearts with stellar performances in Mumbai, Delhi, Dubai, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Canada and the United States, the theatrical returns to the stage that showcased its visual and narratorial grandeur to the Indian audiences like never before.
