The moment I would go near the singhasan, my legs were not ready to move and I was continuously crying and it was not that shot to cry.”

Vicky further added, “It was just the fact that ye uss hi din ho raha tha, it was a thought that 300 years pehle ye same ho raha tha jo aaj hum recreate kar rahen hain. As darbar, isi size ka tha sab match ho raha hai colour, window, sab same place par tha, the energy was too high.”
