The series comprises half-hour thematic episodes, each with multiple stories that traverse the length and breadth of the country. India: Marvels & Mysteries with William Dalrymple will start on January 4, 2024, and will air every Thursday and Friday at 9 pm.
Each episode in the seven-part series will have dramatic recreations, and untold histories behind India’s enigmatic structures across dynasties and periods. The show aims to transport a new generation of viewers into the richness and diversity of India’s past.
William Dalrymple said, “History provides a road map by which we can understand where we stand in the present and how we got here. Without it we are lost. It was a huge pleasure to work with HistoryTV18 on this beautifully shot series and I can’t wait to hear people’s astonished reactions to some of the forgotten treasures we’ve dug up.”
